This relatively large institution offers an exciting program for children and teenagers who want to learn French and have a great time on the Côte d'Azur.
The classes are held in small groups of maximum 15 students per class. The teachers and animators are also present wherever other participants are having fun, be it at the pool, at games, on a trip to Monaco, at the Nautical Amusement Park or at the Lérins Islands.
