At the Kindergarten and Primary School
Opening Up to the World from Kindergarten
In our school, English language learning begins at the youngest age.
Starting in the first year of kindergarten, your children are immersed in a bilingual environment with native English-speaking teachers.
This early immersion allows for a natural and fun way of learning the language, preparing your children for the future.
To validate their progress, we also offer the option of taking the prestigious “Young Learners Cambridge Exam”. They can receive official recognition of their English skills, at their own pace, with the Starters, Movers, and Flyerslevels.
Give your child a head start by providing them with the keys to an international language and preparing their future in an increasingly connected world.

An Education Focused on International Experiences
Notre Dame la Riche is accredited with the Erasmus+ School Education Sector program.
From middle school to high school, cultural openness is a priority.
Thanks to our Erasmus+ accreditation, we offer unique opportunities for our students in middle school, general and technological high school, and the hotel school to have unforgettable experiences abroad.
With financial support from the Erasmus+ program, we conduct joint educational projects with our partner schools in Europe. Our students can also immerse themselves for a few weeks to attend school with a partner institution.
We have built lasting partnerships with schools in Germany and Austria, offering enriching perspectives for our students.
Our educational projects, developed by passionate teams, allow our students to immerse themselves in different cultures while developing their skills. Whether it's through a project on gastronomy or extended immersions, we give our students the tools they need to become global citizens.
