5 MAIN REASONS TO CHOOSE OUR KINDERGARTEN
1- Trilingual from the Start
The kindergarten welcomes families from over 60 nationalities, creating a rich multicultural environment where children naturally learn to interact with different cultures.
From their very first years, children follow a curriculum that integrates French, English, and Chinese, introduced through songs, storytelling, games, and daily interactions.
Families can also choose specialized pathways: SIA, International American Section, or SIC, International Chinese Section.
2- Smooth Transition to Elementary School
K3 (3rd year of Kindergarten) plays a key role in preparing children for Grade 1.
Students finish kindergarten familiar with classroom routines and expectations, so they can focus fully on reading, writing, and basic math, sometimes in multiple languages.
Students in the FLSco program (French learning program for non-native speakers) receive extra French lessons and practice opportunities, allowing them to express themselves confidently and enter Grade 1 ready to read, write, and fully participate in class activities.
3- A Stimulating & Safe Environment
1.5 hours of outdoor play every day in playgrounds designed for exploration and sensory development.
Indoor motor skills areas for climbing, balancing, jumping
Child-friendly cafeteria with meals approved by our medical team and are developed by a commission that includes parents, nutritionists, and cafeteria staff
Supervised daycare after school
Safe, friendly school transportation
4- Fostering Independence from Age 2
Personalized work plans encourage autonomy and progress.
Pre-Kindergarten (TPS), from 2, introduces early socialization, independent learning, and adaptation to school routines
5- A World of Learning Experiences
Kindergarten at LFS goes beyond letters and numbers: children explore the world around them every week.
Hands-on activities spark curiosity and creativity: cooking, Lego building, music and percussion, dance, gymnastics, and mini-crafts.
They develop life skills, teamwork, and self-expression while discovering their passions
