Children naturally begin their language journey through listening and then speaking. Every activity children engage in supports their oral language development. Lasting language learning is fostered through the regularity, repetition, and rhythm of activities, which create opportunities to revisit and reuse vocabulary and sentence structures in meaningful ways. As they grow, they progressively move from oral language to written expression, building the foundation for confident reading and writing.

Through collaborative games and group discussions, children strengthen their communication skills, learn to cooperate for a shared purpose, and practice emotional regulation. They gain the ability to express themselves clearly, work towards collective goals, and maintain a positive mindset in interactions with others, their environment, and their cultural context.

Children are encouraged to explore with curiosity, create with imagination, and act with growing independence. They build self-confidence, persevere through challenges, and develop critical thinking by observing, questioning, and reflecting, all within a supportive and nurturing environment.

Outdoor learning deepens children's connection to the natural world. They become aware of local ecosystems, learn to recognize plant and animal species, and understand the fragility of the environment. Through respectful exploration, they adopt low-impact behaviors and begin to see themselves as responsible citizens who can live in harmony with nature and contribute to sustainable living.

Hands-on experiences allow children to develop practical skills—such as using tools safely—while learning to assess risks and make thoughtful decisions that protect both themselves and the environment.

Children engage in meaningful, curiosity-driven investigations. They learn to ask questions, form hypotheses, choose appropriate research methods (such as observation, experimentation, research in non-fiction books or interviews), and take notes throughout the process. By collecting and analyzing data, they practice critical thinking and develop scientific rigor, all while learning new vocabulary and expressing their discoveries in French.
