The ES&ASC is a social club, devoted to having
fun, whilst sharing a common language : English.
Every month the club organises at least three events, including gastronomic (to suit all budgets), outdoor and cultural
outings. Everyone is welcome to join the ES&ASC – irrespective of nationality or mother tongue – and the club is a
great way to practise your English and have fun at the same time. Half our members have a mother tongue other than
English.
Members of the club receive an attractive colour-printed Newsletter. There are 10 issues per year. |

Annual membership is Fr. 70.- for individual members and Fr. 100.- for couples (2 members residing at the same address). Membership fee is payable at the beginning of the year.
If you have the possibility, please make a direct payment from your CCP or bank account to the club's CCP account 10-21509-5, because this saves us the cash payment charges.
You can apply for membership any time during the current year. The first year, membership fee is proportional to the
remaining months (X/12 months).

If you would like to (help to) organise an event, PLEASE contact one of the committee.
All assistance or ideas are gratefully received !
Please note :
Recently, we have had people saying they would come to an event and not turning up. We understand there are many
things which can happen to prevent one coming. However, when it’s a question of catering or seats reserved it causes
a loss to the club which in turn makes it difficult to offer members a subsidy for some events. We know it's not
always possible to make a firm arrangement weeks ahead but in future we shall have to make a charge to people who
book but subsequently fail to show up.. However, if you have not booked for an event and at the last moment you find
you can come, do not hesitate to phone to see if it is still possible.

« Let’s talk »
In August 2006 the club devised a project to organise a French-for-English twinning, i.e. a
person whose mother tongue is English wishing to improve their spoken French, with a person whose mother tongue
is French and who wishes to improve their spoken English. If the member is a true beginner or does not have
background knowledge of the foreign language, her/his language partner would be a useful aid only with the help
of an adequate language book as a support to conversation.
We have had three twinnings to date, two of which are going on at present. For more information, please contact
