From the The French Nursery School
The cornerstone for children's future success is a high quality of early education. Children's physical, intellectual, emotional, and social development all depend on this time of life. Children may start off on the right foot for their academic careers by boosting their confidence in nursery school.
We foster a positive mentality that values every kid equally, regardless of ability, handicap, gender, or background in a particular culture or ethnicity. fostering an atmosphere where all children may find their abilities, reach their full potential, and make friends while still being joyful, safe, and challenging. In order to create a collection of images for each child throughout the course of the year, we have an in-house photographer. Making good memories is very important.
All of our schools use the Early Years Foundation Stage to present a broad curriculum via active learning and hands-on learning. Pre-preparatory students pursue a wide and balanced curriculum within an engaging framework of French, Spanish, and English that is based on the National Curriculum.
All of our schools put a strong emphasis on creativity and discovery. In addition to fostering children's love of learning, this will help them become more independent and unique. Les Chatons schools work to promote a smooth transition to the more formal schedule of school life by rewarding students for their accomplishments along the route.
