For children ages 4.5 to 5.5, the Grande Section class offers a rich and engaging introduction to more structured French learning. Students will explore everyday vocabulary and simple sentence structures through interactive games, songs, movement, and guided activities. This 45-minute session supports school readiness by fostering attention span, following instructions in French, and developing confidence in self-expression—all in a fun and supportive classroom led by native speaker Clotilde.
