Language Courses

During the morning, we offer French and English courses.

All our teachers are qualified and experienced with young children and teenagers and are all native speakers. They are very motivated and prepare new lessons based on a different theme each year. Their enthusiasm makes the lessons fun and the campers learn!

We want our classes to be lively and different from language classes at school. Language groups are limited in number (maximum 8 per class) and are organized by language level so the children are happy to participate and make an effort to learn and improve. The focus is on conversation and building trust.

An oral evaluation helps to determine the most appropriate group for each child and classes are available for beginner, intermediate or advanced levels.

As a year-round language school, we’re specialized in teaching languages with children and teenagers. Our winter camp program includes 10 hours of language lessons per week.

2 Sports Activities in the winter camp Program

Ski or Snowboard lessons

6 half days from Sunday to Friday*

For fans of powder, winter sports and thrills!

Ski lessons are provided by an ESF (l’Ecole de Ski Français) instructor and campers are tested at the end of the week. The French Alps are known throughout the world for exceptional ski resorts, great snow conditions and unequalled ski runs. During the winter camp program, children will discover, learn and / or improve their abilities in winter sports.

The ski area Evasion Mont Blanc is simply magnificent. It groups together the resorts of Megève, Saint Gervais, Saint Nicolas, Combloux and les Contamines. It is appreciated for its diversity of slopes and landscapes, as well as the altitudes ranging from 1113 to 2350m. In the shadow of the highest summit in Europe, there are no less than 450 kms of slopes, adapted to all tastes and styles and equipped with 117 ski lifts.
