School holidays without the headache

The holidays arrive, but your work schedule stays the same. You need a reliable option for the whole day, not too far from home, that isn't just hours of screen time. And if your child is learning French, you don't want them to lose it over the break, especially if no one at home speaks it.

That's what the Holiday Camp is for: a supervised week built around a theme, in a school your child can discover with no commitment. What your child gets out of it:

  • A real holiday week. One theme per holiday period, workshops every day (arts, cooking, pottery, dance, sports, games) and an outing every week.
  • French, without it feeling like school. Activities take place in French: your child practices it through play and keeps it up until school starts again.
  • School-level supervision. One activity leader for every 8 children under 6, and one for every 12 children aged 6 and over. In kindergarten groups, each instructor works with an assistant.
  • For you, a full workday with peace of mind. Your child is cared for from the morning until the afternoon snack.

A school that has opened during the holidays since 2004

Leaving your child somewhere for the holidays means trusting the adults in charge. Since its nursery opened in 2004, Boule & Billes has welcomed children from other schools during the holidays. The Holiday Camp takes place on our premises, with teachers, assistants and specialist instructors. Doan-Trang HOANG, our Holiday Camp manager, is in charge of organizing it.

The rest of the year, French International School Boule & Billes welcomes children from nursery to Grade 5, with an accredited French curriculum from First Year (age 3) to Grade 5: a path recognized by the French Ministry of National Education, which your child can continue at any accredited school. To learn more: our after school activities project.

Register your child in three steps

  1. Send a request. It takes one minute, with no commitment, for one or more camp sessions this year.
  2. Doan-Trang calls you back. She confirms availability, the program and the fees, and sends you the registration form.
  3. Your child spends the holidays with us. You drop them off in the morning, and they come home at the end of the day with stories to tell.
