The School

The school will open its doors soon. It is located on the 3rd floor of the Samaritaine shops, in the heart of Paris.

Children are welcomed in a fully bilingual English/French environment. The mix of ages from 3 to 6 creates a stimulating and collaborative learning environment.

The pedagogical foundation is based on Montessori materials, carefully selected to support the overall development of 2 year olds. Other activities, such as art, hip-hop, music and baking, complete the programme.

From nursery to kindergarten!

On the occasion of its establishment in the heart of the Samaritaine, 123 mon école has formed a unique partnership with People&Baby, to offer families childcare from 0 to 6 years of age! The crèche welcomes 40 children from 10 weeks old.

In-School Enrichment

Art with Mélissa

Each week, the children participate in art activities,
and many exhibitions are organized
to give parents a chance to share in their creations.

Finger painting, drawing, and learning to cut
provide children the chance to explore and use their senses - and have fun!

Mélissa, our instructor

Music with Sophie

Children sharpen their ears and grow familiar with different instruments by listening to a variety of music.

All media are used to vary the approach to rhythm and pulsation:
rhymes, onomatopoeia, body movements. The children will have at their disposal percussive instruments such as claves, tambourines, maracas...

Life at 123 mon école

Lunch

At 123 mon école, lunch is a continuation of the Montessori approach to education, rather than an interruption. Mealtime is an opportunity for children to share and learn the rules and customs of living together with grace and courtesy.

Nap Time

Nap time is essential for all children in preschool and primary school. Children are given the time they need to rest, with a scheduled nap period from 12:30pm to 3pm.
At the beginning of the school year, each child is assigned their own bed, with a sheet and blanket provided by the school.

Courtyard and play area

Located within the People & Baby crèche and directly accessible from the school, the school has a 100 square metre courtyard and a shared area where children can have access to many games and toys!

Field Trips

Step out of the classroom, go on a field trip, have an adventure!

Every year we organize field trips for children enrolled at the school,
providing opportunities for them to discover a variety of fun and cultural activities, including the aquarium, the Jardin des Plantes, the Musée en Herbes, the Paris farm, the Jardin d'Acclimatation, and the theater.

Events

For the pleasure of gathering our team, parents and children, we organize a party: for
Christmas, at the end of the year and for Halloween.
Every year we offer new shows and fun; puppet shows, a cotton candy stand, balloon sculpting and much more.
We offer new shows and festivities every year; puppet shows, a candyfloss stand, balloon sculpting and many other things to discover!
Parents are also invited to come into the classrooms for a morning of immersion to share a studious morning with their children.

Everyone needs time to adjust

At the beginning of each school year, the children
integrate the school gradually, at their own pace.

"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.
