A2 French reading: which pottery class suits Lina?

Compare two French pottery classes with Lina’s availability. Read the timetable change, learn pictured workshop words and choose the right follow-up question.

In short

The regular Tuesday group suits Lina: it welcomes beginners and meets when she is free. One session moves to Wednesday, so she still needs to check that date and ask whether a place is available.

Atelier Terre — deux groupes pour adultes

Le programme

Vous voulez découvrir la poterie ? Notre groupe du mardi accueille les débutants1, de 18 h à 20 h. Vous apprendrez à fabriquer un petit bol. Le groupe du samedi se réunit de 10 h à midi. Il s’adresse aux personnes qui ont déjà suivi un premier cours. Le matériel est fourni2 dans les deux groupes : vous pouvez utiliser nos outils et nos tabliers.

Le message de Lina

Je n’ai jamais fait de poterie. Je travaille le samedi matin, mais je suis libre le mardi soir. Je cherche un cours pour commencer et je préfère utiliser le matériel de l’atelier. Je voudrais savoir s’il reste une place dans le groupe du mardi.

Une date à noter

Attention : la séance du mardi 12 aura exceptionnellement3 lieu mercredi 13, aux mêmes horaires. Toutes les autres séances du groupe auront lieu le mardi. Pour vous inscrire ou poser une question, contactez l’atelier par courriel.

Read it in English

Want to discover pottery? Our Tuesday group welcomes beginners, from 6 to 8 pm. You will learn to make a small bowl. The Saturday group meets from 10 am to midday. It is for people who have already taken an introductory course. Materials and equipment are provided in both groups: you can use our tools and aprons.

Lina: I have never done pottery. I work on Saturday mornings, but I am free on Tuesday evenings. I am looking for a class to get started, and I prefer to use the workshop’s materials. I would like to know whether there is a place left in the Tuesday group.

Please note: the session on Tuesday the 12th will take place on Wednesday the 13th as a one-off change, at the same times. All other sessions in the group will take place on Tuesdays. To enrol or ask a question, contact the workshop by email.
