The acquisition of French language is a pleasurable experience for the students and is observed through spontaneous singing of French songs and using French vocabulary to describe objects around them. Written exercises , reading and drama are introduced age appropriately.

WATER COLOUR ART

Painting with our Art teacher Ms. Clare Cochrane is simply joyful. Our young students are captivated by her different art projects. The art room is a place they come to be inspired, to learn to mix and create their own colors, to imagine and produce one of a kind artwork .
