FrenchSoc goes to the South of France at Industrie Bar

Bonjour les amis!

Hope you're all enjoying the start of an all-new 4 week break after finishing off tout les projets et les exas! Now you have the chance to head out on a Monday night without worrying about the uni week ahead... See you in the South of France!

End of Semester Party

7pm MONDAY 30th June (this coming monday)
au bar Industrie - South of France 107 Pitt St, Sydney

Come and join FrenchSoc see off the semester in style at Industrie - South of France!
We're offering you a nice glass of wine to start and a few tasty plateaux of food to get your night going in this chic venue in the centre of the city. Come dressed like you're celebrating the end of semester too: there is a strict dress code (cocktail). The venue is awesome though and only just around the corner from Wynyard station.

Alors, ça coûte combien tout ça?:
$10 for members
$12 for access cardholders
and $15 for any others :-)

Payment on arrival...
we will be upstairs on the mezzanine level.

And for those of you who were wondering about our "Participez!" competition... there are few people in contention to win the 2 prizes (pour un mec et une meuf) - this will probably be your last chance to grab some more points and because it's out of semester, this one will be worth 3!!! The 2 prize packs will be given away during the first week of semester 2.
