La petite cole. Amazing school with great nurturing and smart teachers. they teach respect and french and my son now speaks both languages well for a 2 year old. The school day is perfect too, 9-3:15. Its a bit pricey but if you can afford it, I think the fundamental education in the primary years is the most important. The classes are very small too. Wonderful school.
If you care about giving your kids a bilingual education, this is the school to consider. The academic discipline instills great work ethics into the students minds. My kids have grown to adore the school and they seem to have a great time working, playing and interacting with other kids and teachers. This is their 5th year there and I intend to keep them there, as long as possible. The leadership is outstanding and the staff is very friendly. Your best choice if you want to do down the private school route.
I am so happy with la petite ecole ! My daughter is teached respect, politeness, good manners but also art, music, vocabulary, counting, alphabet... The classroom size is just perfect : 2 teachers for 12 students. My daughter made so quick progress in french and english but also in socialisation. I could'nt find a better school !
La Petite Ecole is a great school, my 2 kids go there and they just love it. The french teachers are from france and they provide the best in terms of education and building a warm relationship with the kids that is filled with respect. The schools offers all the good aspects that my kids need.
La Petite Ecole has achieved what we thought would be possible only by moving to France. Our two girls are thoroughly comfortable with the language and enjoy switching to French whenever they can. The school has a relaxed, playful environment where students participate in activities that nurture, build self-confidence and self-esteem, and reward their creativity and innate inquisitiveness. We feel very fortunate to have discovered La Petite Ecole. The daily progress that our girls have made in language and reasoning is a real testament to the school s dedication, energy, skill and love for teaching. For those of you who are on a tight budget and are concerned about class size, the school cannot be beat.
Great school with small class sizes. Kids learn about art and have great PE classes. No bullying issues. My kids love going to school and excel in both French and English.
