The GPS Noumea Study Tour is open to students in Grades 5 & 6 and their parents. The tour is an educative one, aimed to immerse students in a friendly French-speaking environment, within close proximity to Australia. It's also about 'making French fun!'

Due to an overwhelming response, we completed two tours to Noumea in 2005 and 2007.
