Our small class sizes and individualized attention ensure that each child receives personalized instruction tailored to their age, level, and learning style. From beginners to more advanced learners, every child is supported and encouraged to reach their full potential.

Afternoon Adventure Programme:

After a morning filled with language exploration, it’s time for outdoor adventure and exploration! In the afternoon, children embark on thrilling activities led by experienced providers like ESF and Evolution 2. Here’s what our action-packed afternoons entail:

1. Exciting Outdoor Activities:

From mountain biking and rock climbing to nature hikes and treasure hunts, our afternoon programme offers a wide range of activities that cater to children’s interests and abilities. Guided by experienced instructors, children develop outdoor skills, build confidence, and forge lifelong memories.

2. Physical Fitness and Well-being:

Engaging in outdoor activities not only provides an adrenaline rush but also promotes physical fitness and well-being. Whether conquering a climbing wall or splashing through river rapids, children stay active and healthy while having a blast in the great outdoors.

3. Teamwork and Social Skills:

Adventure activities provide the perfect opportunity for children to collaborate, problem-solve, and communicate effectively with their peers. Through teamwork and cooperation, they learn valuable social skills and develop strong friendships that extend beyond the camp.

In conclusion, Alpine French School’s Summer Camp offers a holistic approach to learning and adventure, combining interactive French lessons with thrilling outdoor activities. Through language immersion and outdoor exploration, children not only expand their linguistic skills but also cultivate confidence, resilience, and a sense of wonder for the world around them.
