The New Caledonian corner in Alliance Française Sunshine Coast
Thanks to the grant from the New Caledonian government represented by the New Caledonian Delegation in Australia, Alliance Française de la Sunshine Coast was able to acquire more than 1200 different works including novels, children's tales, cartoons and documentaries.
All these works are presented exclusively in our “New Caledonia” mobile Library.
The opening of this cultural and educational initiative will occur on the 9th of November in the presence of the
representative for the "Gouvernement de la Nouvelle-Calédonie", Dr. Yves Lafoy, the president of Alliance française de la
Sunshine Coast
Mrs Caroline Mawditt and 100 guests.
The event will be followed by a lunch celebrating the 16th anniversary of the Alliance française de la Sunshine Coast.
The objective of this new space is not only for members to immerse themselves with the new amazing resources, but also for our teachers, who will regularly use these resources to allow students to discover more about ‘the little piece of France’ close to Australia.
It is our mission in Alliance française de la Sunshine Coast to continue promoting cultures from French speaking countries to communities on the Sunshine Coast and its surroundings.

Our mission
The Alliance Française de la Sunshine Coast is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to promoting French language, culture,
literature and history on the Sunshine Coast of Australia and to encourage French-Australian cultural exchange and friendship.
The Alliance Française de la Sunshine Coast provides the opportunity for friends of French language and culture to come together in a
very welcoming, non-political and non-religious environment.
