French Word Power

Prayatna Educational Society organizes "French Word Power" – an invigorating vocabulary-based competition held annually at both state and national levels. This dynamic event provides students with a platform to enrich their linguistic skills by delving into a plethora of new words, all while competing for exciting prizes.

In a fruitful collaboration with the Québec Government Office in Mumbai, "French Word Power" celebrates the richness of the French language and Francophone culture. With a dedicated section highlighting the captivating heritage of Québec, the competition offers participants a unique opportunity to explore the cultural nuances and linguistic diversity of this vibrant region.

Since its inception in 2014, "French Word Power" has garnered enthusiastic participation from more than 22,000 students each year. Beyond honing language skills, the competition serves as a catalyst for fostering a deep-seated passion for the French language and cultivating meaningful cross-cultural connections among the youth.

Both exams, conducted in the form of Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQs), can be seamlessly integrated into the school's annual planner as mandatory external evaluation tests. "French Word Power" assesses students' vocabulary in context, while "Concours Romain Rolland" evaluates their proficiency in reading, cultural understanding, and other linguistic skills. Together, these exams comprehensively gauge students' essential linguistic abilities.
