Pre-K to Primary: A Bilingual Learning Journey

Their steps, their rhythm

We take pride in our ability to respect your child's pace to facilitate their integration into the school system, step by step. Ideally, your child could start coming to school a few mornings a week, then increase to one or two full days (naptime included!), until they reach a full week by the end of the year. However, we can of course accommodate your child full-time, year round, as early as Petite Section.

Teaching adapted to their needs

Our teachers are all bilingual. They plan various workshops and activities with the children, sing and tell stories in their mother tongue. This dynamic atmosphere helps students improve their comprehension of both languages. 

The musicality of language

In Moyenne and Grande Section, students are exposed to their non-native language on a daily basis. Divided into two groups of mixed native speakers, children spend alternating full days with an English-speaking teacher and then a French-speaking teacher.
While it may take some time to adapt, assimilating language through imitation and habit truly works. Our kind and empathetic teachers are present to accompany your children academically and emotionally as they face these changes.

Exploring the written word

In Grande Section (kindergarten), children have access to an initiation in reading. If your child is interested and ready, we will provide them with appropriate activities to stimulate their development in this area. We use the Syllabic method in French and Monster Phonics in English, frameworks that have more than proven their effectiveness.

Verbal and physical expression

Starting as early as Petite Section, we believe it's important for your child to gain verbal skills and to feel at home in their body. We propose dance workshops as well as PE activities to help your child reach these essential developmental milestones.
