Les Petits Plus is a dream that took shape in 2017. To offer our children a positive education, committed to the world, where each child and his or her family become actors in their own journey. At Les Petits Plus, we live our days in French and in English, we are immersed in strong values to know how to think ourselves and the world.

Testimonials
“A school we recommend with our eyes closed. Our daughter is completely fulfilled […] We can feel that she enjoys learning, and we appreciate the openness to the world that is offered to children through rich and varied themes. Thank you to the whole team for the high quality of their work!”
“Our daughter started school at Le Petit Plus this year and enjoys going there every day. Her integration went super smoothly thanks to the teaching team and the other children in the class. The pedagogy leaves plenty of room for the child to blossom, develop and grow. […]”
“We chose this school for its environment and positive pedagogy. It’s a choice for the future, for the well-being of our daughter and the knowledge she will have of herself as an adult. She is happy, fulfilled and open to others. Every morning she goes to school with enthusiasm. That’s the most important thing.”
