A school with a serene and joyful atmosphere, offering a vision of open education that's both demanding and warm - just waiting to be discovered!

Early bilingual education?
School from age 2

Back in 2013, 123 mon école designed a classroom dedicated to children aged 2 to 3. In 2017,123 mon école's pre-kindergarten moved to 37 avenue de Lowendal in Paris, continuing to welcome children aged 2 in a prepared Montessori environment conducive to concrete learning and English practice, from an early age. This private school, reserved for children enrolled in the toddler section (TPS), enables them to gain in confidence and independence. Children are accompanied by a bilingual teaching team that is as professional as it is passionate. Places are available all year round. We look forward to meeting you!

Montessori pedagogy
and prepared environment

Kindergarten and preschool children, guided by a qualified and experienced bilingual teaching team, use Montessori materials on a daily basis. This enriches and stimulates the overall development and well-being of all children. This pedagogical approach offers a wide range of activities in French and English throughout the day, in a variety of areas: practical life, the sensory world, oral and written language, mathematics and discovery of the world and cultures. This enables children to acquire all the skills set out in the French national education curriculum, and much more besides! Montessori activities foster children's reasoning, creativity, motor and social skills, all within a bilingual school environment. The school also offers bilingual extracurricular activities on Wednesdays and during school vacations.

Welcome to preschool!
A cocoon of softness and laughter in the heart of Paris.

Parent Voices

"After four years at the school, three of which were spent with the same dedicated and extremely competent teacher, my daughter Lila literally felt at home. A little girl who feels good about herself, happy to go to school and happy to learn. I sincerely thank 123 Mon école for all these years and unforgettable moments.

Stéphanie, Lila's mother

"Our three children, Charles aged 11, Joseph aged 7.5 and now Gabrielle aged 3, attended kindergarten at 123 mon école. Charles was part of the first class opened in 2010, we are delighted with this school, the team and the atmosphere. Charles and Joseph are now pursuing an excellent course in CE1 and CM2 in a classic primary school, Stanislas. Gabrielle is blossoming in her first year with Mélanie, who has been watching over our children with passion and kindness since Charles.
A big thank you to the whole teaching team and to the headmistress for your dynamism and professionalism which have made this faultless course possible, for what we hold most dear.
"

Emmanuelle, Mother of Charles, Joseph and Gabrielle

"My son was part of the first class of the school at 28 rue Frémicourt (little Alex who was 2.5 years old is now 11!). I went to the school's website by chance and am delighted to see the success of the school. I trained in pedagogy following his passage in your school and worked 4 years in Scotland. The website also indicates that Melanie is still there! Please give her my best regards. Alex has long referred to her as his teacher...
Our time at 123 mon école will always be remembered as one of the best decisions regarding our son's education!
Good luck!"

Jacqueline, Alex's mother

" 10 years ago, Gaspard was part of the first class of 1,2,3 mon école, where he spent two really great years. He has fond memories (and so do we) of Mélanie, his educator, who helped him adapt very gently. He is now in 5th grade, and is 172 cm tall. He is quite comfortable in his sneakers, loves computers, kung fu and his friends.
A big thank you "

Fanny, Gaspard's mother

Sports with Darif

At 123 mon école, the children play sports every week,
indoors in a dedicated room, or in our courtyard when the weather permits.

We have a wide range of equipment and Darif comes in to take care of the business.

Darif

Music with Sophie

Through a variety of music, children can sharpen their ears.
They will become familiar with musical instruments. All types of support are used to vary approaches to rhythm and pulsation: nursery rhymes, onomatopoeia, body movements.

Sophie

A magnificent private courtyard!

Located at the back of our nursery school, the playground is our pupils' adventure playground. They let off steam, play tag and take a deep breath of fresh air before returning to the classroom.

Nappers go to recess before lunchtime, older children afterwards.

Weather permitting, sporting activities can also be enjoyed outdoors.
