Concours d’art oratoire-Nova Scotia

Concours d’art oratoire is Canada’s largest annual French-language public speaking competition involving over a 100,000 students across Canada every year, and thousands of dollars worth of prizes.

The aims of this public speaking contest are to stimulate the interest of students learning French, to improve their oral skills, and to give them experience speaking in public.

This event is organized by Canadian Parents for French (CPF), who has worked together with parents and school staff since 1983 to organize school, district and provincial-level competitions.

Concours d'art oratoire is open to French Second Language (FSL) and Francophone students from grades five through twelve who are studying Core French, Integrated French, Intensive French, French immersion (Early, Middle or Late) or French First Language (CSAP), or studying in at a CAIS school (Canadian Association of Independent Schools).

Students will advance from their school and regional school board competition to the provincial competition. For information on participating in the Concours d’art oratoire, please contact your child’s teacher or the French Second Language Consultant at your Regional Centre for Education. Regional Education Centres must register in order for their students to participate.
