Can you do Units 1&2 of French in Year 10 itself?
schmalex:
VSL is probably an easier option. She can do units 1&2 for three hours a week outside of school.
m@tty:
VSL = Victorian School of Languages
Fyrefly:
Yeah, VSL is actually quite a good idea... my friend did Italian at high school, and Macedonian at VSL.

I'd say that if your daughter is interested in French, simple acceleration might not be the best option. I found that I learnt the crux of my French knowledge in year 9 - since then, I've been fine tuning the details of the language and improving my fluency. The VCE course isn't markedly different from the years 9 and 10 course - you're just expected to put more time into the study. It might be a better idea for your daughter to consider sitting the DELF (either in conjunction with 1/2 or just in addition to her year 10 course) - the DELF is recognised by the French government. Alliance Francaise runs the exams in Australia, and you can probably find out a bit more here: http://www.alliancefrancaise.com.au/content/tabID__3484/French_Language_Diplomas.aspx

They also run competitions, right?
I did a poetry recital competition back in Year 7 (the only year I studied French, lol).
