Our Early Years TPS programme welcomes children from the age of two into a warm, structured, and developmentally focused environment.
Tailored to the needs of very young learners, it blends high-quality Early Years pedagogy with a balanced bilingual environment, where English and French are introduced naturally through play, routines, and daily interactions—offering children a confident and joyful start to school life.
A high-quality Early Years setting gives children:
✨ emotional security and predictable routines
✨ early socialisation with peers
✨ the foundations for communication and self-expression
✨ a strong base for independence and confidence
✨ a gentle introduction to structured learning through play
It is a meaningful head start for their future learning pathway.
Our TPS class offers a carefully structured bilingual environment, where English and French are used daily to support young children’s linguistic, emotional, and cognitive development.
For anglophone families, this means:
✨ meaningful daily exposure to English within a structured bilingual setting
✨ continuity with English through routines, interactions, and key moments of the day
✨ a strong foundation for children who will later live, study, or grow in multilingual environments
For non-native English-speaking families, this approach provides a gentle, natural introduction to English, embedded in daily school life and supported by French as a reassuring linguistic anchor.
Our staff are Early Childhood experts who understand the unique needs of two-year-olds:
✨ attachment and emotional regulation
✨ separation routines and gentle transitions
✨ emerging communication and social skills
✨ structured play that supports brain development
✨ positive, responsive interaction throughout the day
Your child is supported with warmth, attentiveness, and professional expertise.
The TPS classroom is intentionally crafted for comfort, safety, and independence:
✨ low, ergonomic furniture
✨ sensory corners and quiet retreat spaces
✨ open-ended materials inspired by Montessori and Reggio Emilia
✨ a dedicated nap room for restorative sleep
✨ age-appropriate motor play equipment
Everything is designed to support curiosity and autonomy.

Daily opportunities for climbing, balancing, manipulating, building.

At ESL, young children grow with confidence, curiosity, and joy, in a caring environment that respects their individual pace of development.
Preschool is often a child’s first experience of life in a group. Through daily activities, children gradually learn to share, cooperate, take turns, express their emotions, and respect others.
We guide and support them as they find their place within a united, caring, and secure community.
Music, movement, singing, drawing, painting, and sensory exploration are part of everyday life, with each day offering a rich variety of activities adapted to children’s developmental needs.
On Wednesdays, younger children can also enjoy additional workshops including creative arts, cooking, storytelling, and hands-on discovery—fostering curiosity, confidence, and the joy of learning.
