Téléphones mobiles/tablettes
L’utilisation de téléphones portables/tablettes par des mineurs est un sujet de grande préoccupation pour Alpine French School et les parents.

Cette politique vise à assurer le bien-être de tous les élèves et à garantir qu’ils profitent du camp au maximum.
Lundi au vendredi (étudiants en résidentiel) :
Le personnel du camp gardera les téléphones portables des étudiants pendant la journée afin que ceux-ci puissent se concentrer sur leurs leçons et leurs activités. Ils leur seront
restitués à la fin des activités de l’après-midi (vers 16h30) et ils seront autorisés à utiliser leur téléphone pour aller sur Internet, passer des appels et accéder à leur messagerie jusqu’à
l’heure du coucher. Au coucher, les téléphones portables des étudiants seront remis au personnel du camp. Veuillez en parler à votre enfant avant leur arrivée au camp pour vous assurer que cela ne soit pas une surprise pour eux.
Week-ends (étudiants en résidence) :
Les étudiants pourront utiliser leur téléphone du petit-déjeuner jusqu’au moment du coucher pendant le week-end. Les activités sont plus calmes le week-end, ce qui permettra aux élèves d’envoyer des messages, d’appeler leurs amis et leur famille ainsi que de prendre des photos de leurs activités.
Étudiants du camp en journée :
Aucun téléphone portable n’est autorisé dans le camp pendant la journée. Si vous souhaitez que votre enfant ait un téléphone portable pour les cas d’urgence, vous devez mettre celui-
ci dans son sac et le remettre au responsable du camp à son arrivée. Si vous souhaitez contacter votre enfant pendant la journée, n’hésitez pas à appeler directement le centre et
vous pourrez parler à votre enfant.
Nous avons un groupe Facebook fermé où les chefs de camp et les enseignants posteront des photos quotidiennes des élèves afin que vous puissiez voir ce qu’ils ont fait pendant la
journée.
Cours
Les étudiants sont répartis selon leur âge et leur niveau de français/anglais. La première session de tous nos cours est une évaluation informelle et les groupes seront changés si
