Good evening, we are a bit different than all of you because we are a french family, just came back in France after 4 years in Malta. So, strangely we are looking to find expats in France haha ! Like English expats , we need to find a school for our 6 years old daughter who is absolutely bilingual ! Idealy in nice ... she did the test for the publics bilinguals school and she failed ... Yes yes failed ! Unbelievable, really, money money probably there ... very bad to know that from public school ... ( she got more point in English , I tell you ... there is something wrong ... ) So you check about bilingual school. We wanted to register her to abc school, this is our choice about price location etc ... But, the salary are not what we expected in France ... And we ask ourself if 7000€/ year will be not to much ... But for sure the best will be for her to have a bilingual " cp ". Then I checked about private school with some English ( not the level of our daughter , That is the problem ... ) and most of them are full up. The price is only 700€/year, a big big difference .So , I asked myself, which school  English people Choose for there children ? Thank you you ReAly much for you attention . And we are open to meet you and yours kids , to speak English or French

Has anyone currently got their children at either of these schools ?Interested in your experience....we have a seven and nine year old and maybe moving to Le Rouret.Philip

Hello everyone, we are in need of some child friendly English speaking volunteers. We need people for a few hours a week, to help us deliver a play-based therapy and education program to our son who is on the Autism spectrum. The program is expected to reduce and possibly reverse the symptoms of autism. All that is required is a big heart and an enthusiastic and happy attitude...oh and some imagination. We are very exited to try this program with our son, but we need people to help us. It will hopefully be a very rewarding endeavor. Our son is a very calm 27mth old toddler, easy to be around, but needing some extra care. It is not a babysitting job. One or both parents will be around for support and guidance. Many thanks in advance to anyone with the heart to give it a go!
