Sensory discovery

Touch trays, exploration mats, low obstacle courses: children learn with their hands before words.

Bilingual routines

Nursery rhymes and everyday words in French and English, from the very first months.

Settling in

Gradual and planned together with the family: first one hour, then a morning, then the whole day.

What to bring

Snacks and lunches, nappies, wipes and spare clothes. School supplies and early learning materials are provided by the school.

Language and pre-reading

Naming, telling stories, recognising sounds and letters. Vocabulary grows every day.

Logic and first numbers

Sorting, arranging, comparing, counting: hands-on first, abstract thinking later.

English every day

Routines, songs and instructions in English, every day, in the classroom.

A progress book

Kept by the teacher, it records what has been mastered and what still needs more time.

A speech therapist, psychomotor therapist or psychologist when a need is identified.

ENROL IN PRIMARY SCHOOL
CONTINUITY

Changing stage without losing your bearings

The move is prepared before the holidays: children meet their future class, and their progress book follows them from one year to the next.

1

The visit is prepared

Before the summer, children spend time in the class they will join, with the teacher who will welcome them.

2

The progress book follows the child

What was observed one year is not lost the next: the new teacher knows exactly where the child is.

3

A staggered start

The first days are spent in small groups, so everyone can find their feet without a crush.

where to start

How old is your child?

Choose an age range: we’ll tell you which stage your child would join, and what to have ready.

YOUR CHILD’S STAGE
Micro-nursery

Fifteen children per group at most, an early years educator and assistants. Bring snacks and lunches, nappies, wipes and spare clothes; settling in is planned together with you.
