Alliance Francaise de Brisbane is thrilled to offer you a tailor-made French immersion program for adults in New Caledonia, in partnership with CREIPAC.
Spend 8 nights in New Caledonia, with daily morning French lessons from qualified, native speakers.
During your free time you will get to experience the rich blend of French and Kanak culture through cultural excursions and hands-on
workshops with locals.
Sharpen your language skills through immersion and gain confidence by practising in real-life interactions.
Most of your immersion trip will be spent in Nouméa, the cosmopolitan capital of New Caledonia.
The port city blends French elegance with island charm. From turquoise lagoons and golden beaches, to vibrant markets and rich Kanak heritage, it offers a perfect mix of relaxation and cultural discovery.
The program is an 8-day inclusive package: accommodation, French classes, daily activities, transportation.
Meals: Weekday breakfasts and lunches are included. Dinner inclusion depends on whether you choose family homestay or
hotel accommodation. More details below.
The package does not include flights or travel insurance.
We are pleased to have partnered with Aircalin to offer discounted rates
on flights for participants on this trip.
Saturday 29 August – Sunday 6 September
Please note that there is a one-hour time difference between Brisbane (GMT+10) and New Caledonia (GMT+11).
During the trip, you will complete a 17-hour French course (3 hours of French lessons per day, for 5 days, plus an extra interactive afternoon!). Classes are taught in a casual environment, through interactive techniques (conversation, games, music), incorporating elements of the local culture.
Class groups are determined according to the participants' levels, from beginners to advanced. French is spoken at all times (exceptions are made for beginners when needed, and when activities require further explanations e.g. safety rules).
Teachers are experienced and certified in FLE (Français Langue Etrangère / French as a Foreign Language).
Throughout your stay, you will discover New Caledonian culture while exploring Nouméa and its surroundings each afternoon. Activities include guided city tours, visits to the Centre Culturel Tjibaou, a wine and cheese tasting, and more—offering a rich and varied cultural experience.
The program also includes two full-day excursions: one to the iconic Amedee Lighthouse, and another to the stunning Rivière Bleue National Park, known for its unique landscapes and rich biodiversity.
Various accommodation options available to suit different preferences and budgets:
CREIPAC offers a Host Family Homestay option, for an authentic, budget-friendly experience where you stay with locals, enjoy home-cooked meals, and fully immerse yourself in the culture.
Otherwise, you can choose our hotel pick:
