If you dream of your child speaking fluent French, here are 3 reasons to enrol them in our immersive holiday camps:

1. Our Unique Approach Delivers Results

Not only is our approach unique and highly effective, but children also have fun and don’t even realise they’re learning! This is a challenging programme that ignites children’s natural curiosity. Over our 30 years of teaching, we’ve developed unique techniques that encourage children to listen and speak in French.

Guided and taught by native French teachers, they learn with an authentic accent. We don’t rely on boring vocabulary lists or flashcards; instead, we teach through living and thriving in activities that are age-appropriate. As they engage in these activities, children memorise new vocabulary, and learn or improve their syntax in context, understanding how to use it naturally.

Alongside learning French, children also develop physical and social skills through a wide range of dynamic and creative activities: arts, drama, role play, storytelling, games, sports, cooking, dan

cing, singing, yoga, mindfulness, and fun, creative worksheets to reinforce what they’ve learned.

Daily immersion in our holiday clubs helps children build on what they’ve learned at school or during our weekly lessons. By attending every day, they maximise their exposure to French, ensuring they retain what they’ve learned and make even more progress. With regular exposure, your child will build a strong foundation that can lead to fluency over time, opening up a world of future educational and career opportunities.

Our approach ensures children are happy, curious, and eager to participate and learn. Whether they are beginners, intermediate, or advanced, all children will learn, improve, and consolidate their French in our pressure-free immersion programme. 

2. The Benefits of Learning French with Our Programme Are Amazing and Essential

Starting French early opens a world of benefits for your child:

– Cognitive Development: It boosts brain development, enhancing memory, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills.
– Confidence in Speaking: Through regular practice, your child will become more confident in speaking French, paving the way for easier language learning in the future.
– Authentic Accent: Learning from native French speakers ensures that your child develops a natural and authentic accent from the start.
– Cultural Awareness: Language is a gateway to understanding different cultures. Our camps offer children a rich cultural experience, broadening their worldview and fostering open-mindedness.
– Academic Head Start: Our curriculum aligns with Key Stages 1 and 2 of the UK primary school system, giving your child a head start in both French and academic skills.
– Long-Term Fluency: With regular exposure, your child will build a strong foundation that can lead to fluency over time, opening doors to future opportunities in education and careers.

Exposure: Immersion is the most beneficial and best way to learn. Surrounding children with French speakers, whether through family members, friends, or immersion programmes, provides constant exposure to the language.

Social interaction: Language acquisition is not about memorising words and grammar rules; it’s also about understanding and engaging with others in meaningful communication.

Interactive Learning: Children learn best through active participation and engagement. Incorporating games, songs, stories, and other interactive activities into their learning experience make the process enjoyable and effective.

Multisensory Approach: Engaging multiple senses in the learning process can enhance retention. Using visual aids, gestures, and tactile materials alongside spoken and written language reinforces comprehension and memory.

Consistency: Regular exposure to the language is crucial. Consistent practice, even in small doses, helps reinforce learning and build fluency over time.

Contextual Learning: Connecting language learning to real experiences helps children understand the practical use of French.

Critical thinking skills: This is fundamental to foster this for effective learning in various domains, including language acquisition.

Patience and Support: Every child learns at their own pace. Providing a supportive environment where they feel safe to make mistakes and learn from them is essential.

Age-Appropriate Materials: Age-appropriate educational activities tailored to children’s interests ensures their engagement and enjoyment while learning French.

In our immersive holiday clubs and in our immersive weekly sessions by focusing on these elements and fostering a positive and supportive learning environment, children develop a strong foundation when they are beginners, further develop their skills as they progress, and enhance their fluency, becoming bilingual.

The post A little guide to explore Paris with children first appeared on Club Petit Pierrot.

I would like to share with you some of the key reasons, it is essential to learn a language during the early years!

The brain’s plasticity during childhood provides a unique opportunity for acquiring language skills more easily and there is significant research supporting the many benefits of second language acquisition. This is a critical period as the brain is more plastic and adaptable. After a certain age, the brain becomes less flexible, and language acquisition becomes more challenging.

The brain Learning languages early in life has been associated with changes in brain structure and function. Bilingual individuals, for example, may have more developed areas of the brain related to language processing and cognitive control.

Cognitive development Learning a language early on contributes to cognitive development. It enhances memory, problem-solving skills, and overall cognitive abilities. Children exposed to multiple languages often develop better executive functions and demonstrate enhanced creativity and flexibility in thinking.

Literacy Studies have shown that children who are bilingual or multilingual tend to perform better academically. Learning multiple languages enhances literacy skills, including reading, writing, and comprehension. It can also improve performance in subjects like mathematics.

Culture Language is deeply intertwined with culture. Learning a language early exposes children to different cultures, fostering an appreciation for diversity. This early exposure can contribute to a more open-minded and globally aware individual.

Communication Early language acquisition helps develop strong communication skills. Children who learn multiple languages tend to be more effective communicators, as they are accustomed to navigating different linguistic and cultural contexts.

At Club Petit Pierrot, we are not just teaching French, we are fostering a love for learning. Your child will flourish and learn effortlessly!

Amusez-vous bien !

The post Bonnes Vacances ! Fun French activities to practise during the holiday (part 1) first appeared on Club Petit Pierrot.

I was recently interviewed for The French newspaper Le Figaro and on this occasion, the subject was about how best to maintain a child’s language skills and culture for French children living abroad.

It inspired me to write this blog to share my thoughts on this! As a teacher and a mother, I know that it is a challenge.

1. Language and culture are connected!

Speaking a language is not only the use of words to communicate, it is how we share our culture and traditions, as well as our history, sense of humour and emotions!

2. Analyse your context: It will help with any expectations or frustrations.

Not all children with a French parent hear French being spoken to them every day. Ask yourself…

• How often does my child hear spoken French during a week?
• Who speaks French to her/him?
• Does my child understand when I speak French?
• Does he reply in French or English?
• When my child tries to speak French, are they confident?

3. Make a plan!

The most common strategies

• One person – One language / each parent speaks in their native language.
• The minority language is spoken at home. In this case French
• When & Where: Plan moment(s) in your daily or weekly family routine which are always in French.

I advise choosing and adapting any strategy to fit in with your own family lifestyle!

4. What to avoid?

First try not to worry too much about it, remove any stress around the language!

• Don’t force your child to reply in French or repeat all the time, they will be discouraged to speak!
• Avoid systematic translation: It is not necessary, and this would be a missed opportunity to teach more and expand their vocabulary in a natural manner: you could explain the meaning of a word in French with other words, discuss possibilities with your child and/or you can mime, draw while explaining this in French.
• Don’t expect perfection. One learns by experimenting and therefore making mistakes is part of the process.
• Don’t give up, even if your child replies in English or mixes up both languages.

5. The importance of making it fun and meaningful.

• When your child is having fun, she/he is not frightened to experiment, so in this case not frightened to speak.
• Your child needs a reason to speak. They will naturally communicate if it is useful.
• Ideally your child forgets you are speaking in French and just communicates with you (even if in English sometimes or with an imperfect French) and feels that there is no pressure!

6. Several practical ideas to keep it as effortless as possible for you and your child!

• Speak French during everyday life routine: morning and evening routine, meals…
• Read stories: will improve their language skills.
• Play together: with any toys or board games that you both enjoy.
• Cook together: when following instructions, they will develop their listening skills and expand their vocabulary.
• Sing songs: children’s songs but also your favourite adult songs in French! When singing they will effortlessly absorb grammatical structures.

7. Learning a language is a journey.

Children learn a language through hearing it first. Their progress will depend on the amount of exposure they get. Therefore don’t compare their progress with friends or siblings. Each child has their own journey depending on their daily life.

Alors keep at it, having fun will have a positive effect on everyone’s motivation!

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to call or send an email!
