Did you know that the diary entry is the most popular question in the Leaving Cert French paper? 90% of students answer the diary question. You will find it in Question 2 of the written section of the paper.

In this Diary Entry Booklet 5 you will find diary entries from:
- 2013

- Most importantly is an opening statement to address the scenario or question.
- State what happened and how you are feeling as a result.
- Say what you propose to do.
- Mention who was there or were you on your own?

- In conclusion, you must sign off your diary entry appropriately.
Each Diary Entry…
- Is written in French and English.
