Despite cutbacks, staff shortages and a hostile 
French government, the Diwan Breton medium school 
organisation has proven its resilience yet again, 
this time by opening a new school in Paris.

  Anna Vari Chapalain from Diwan announced the 
news exclusively to Eurolang today. She said that 
³all the conditions are good, we¹ve found a place 
near Montparnasse [the Breton quarter of Paris], 
we¹ve over 15 new pupils and a teacher. The new 
school has been set up because of the vigorous 
work and campaigning done by a group of parents².

  She added that: ³For the Breton language it is 
essential that we get back on track, take the 
initiative, and implement our policy of opening 
new schools². (Eurolang)"
