Alliance Francaise de Hamilton "Meet the Teachers" 29 April 2021
Would you like to learn French?
The Alliance Francaise is a worldwide, non-profit network of associations dedicated to the promotion of French language and culture.
Alliance Francaise de Hamilton offers French lessons on Thursday evenings during term time. The classes are held at Wintec and are not subsidised by the government.
If you would like to learn French we are inviting you to meet our teachers! Come and have a chat with them, ask your questions, assess your level and enjoy some French wine and food.
You can even register for classes while you are there at a discounted rate. The next term will start on the week of 3 May (so classes will be on Thursday 6 May).

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
