La petite ecole is one of the best experience we had with my little daughter (nearly 3 years old). Teachers are nice, comprehensive, loving and so good. My daughter made so huge progress in only 2 months. She is more independant, she learned french songs, she can draw, paint, sing, recognize letters, numbers... There are many afterschool activities, the atmosphere is more like a family, the parents communauty is so great so international so active. What a good school. I already know that we will register her sister as soon as she will be 2 years old.
