Welcome to the Bilingual School !
Three years after opening with a handful of motivated students, we are now happy to welcome over 60 students, aged 4 to 10, from Pre-K (Enfantine – CH/Reception UK) to Year 5 (6th Grade UK). We will open our Secondary School (Collège) in 2012 and follow-up the students to the Bilingual „Maturité Fédérale“ or the IB.
Our first students are now 9 and 10 years and have become fully bilingual with our natural interactive immersion method. They read Harry Potter as well as Marcel Pagnol and speak fluently both in French and English.
We are very pleased with the success of our students in our innovative curriculum. Our school combines the learning goals of a comprehensive classic education with the most modern teaching strategies and means.
Our scientific goals are broad, and we offer advanced programs in mathematics, literature, arts and sciences. But we do this with the most innovative methods. We allow the students to achieve these goals with daily use of the Internet and computers and interactive whiteboards, as well as with individualized teaching strategies where each child is monitored and accompanied (in classes of 16 maximum). And we start everything at a young age: this is how our students are able to achieve a particularly high level of knowledge and skills.
We allow students to really learn to work independently. Our first classes are now able to write articles and presentations of 500 to 1000 words, on the computer, in English and in French, after doing research on Internet and the library (and without copy and paste ...). We are proud of them!
We are happy to welcome you for a visit !
Best regards,
Tina Roessler
