Allez les bleus !
We have a strong soccer culture in our School!

What a great winning team! We had to escape from two rooms to take this group photo!

This week we learned about the Belgian celebration for “Saint Nicolas”. All of the kids in our school had the traditional snack of an orange and speculoos. Students in our French program also made gift bags to take home. 🇧🇪

We added these great acoustical panels into our classrooms and hallways! They are very effective in absorbing sounds and are also cute and practical -- they can be seen as décor and used as pin boards!
Thank you Pinkgemini Reps and Alfred Williams & Company for providing these panels to us!

Traditions at our school come from all over the world. One of our American traditions is Annual Thanksgiving Picnic, when teachers and children make food for parents and family members and then we all gather and share a meal together.
Many thanks to all participants, volunteers and our event sponsor, Cedric Dequin, for a successful event.

This week we had a visit from a dairy cow! The kids learned about how cows live on the farm, where milk comes from and nutrition from this special visit. Best of all, the kids were able to use their vocabulary about the topic in French, Mandarin Chinese and Spanish!

We are learning about animals in the preschool for our current unit! Check out our students learning animals names in different languages and exploring the life cycle of a frog. We are also doing lots of great work in math and literacy! For more information about our programs, please visit our website. Link in bio.
