Celebrating 130 years of Alliance Française de Sydney

🎉 We’re thrilled to announce that this year marks 130 years of promoting French language and culture in Sydney!
🙏 Since 1895, Alliance Française of Sydney has been dedicated to promoting the French language and Francophone cultures, strengthening the bond between France and Australia.

💫 We’re ready to celebrate with a series of exceptional events throughout the year.

🗓️ Stay tuned for more updates – we can’t wait to share this special year with you!

This January, we were delighted to welcome Pascaline Meunier from the Agence d’Attractivité de Toulouse, who  brought with her a special pedagogical suitcase filled with Toulouse treasures!

Inside, students discovered violets, an Occitan flag, a Bigflo & Oli CD, and more, offering a unique glimpse into the culture of Toulouse. These gifts have already made their way into our classrooms, where our teachers are sharing their passion for the city with students. 

We’re grateful to Pascaline and the Agence d’Attractivité de Toulouse for choosing us as the second recipient of the “Valise de Toulouse” worldwide!
