One floor is reserved for the elderly. The hospital is well maintained, the rooms are modern and pleasant, but showers are upstairs and there has little or no room. As the food is especially bad. The nurses and doctors have followed their patients. In short, a pleasant place where you would like to return more often! (Joke!)

I havewritten an opinion on school Paul Bert living his last days,…read more I wish you present the school that will replace it. In fact students and teaching staff will join a whole school New, which will be "given" the time that we destroy the old Paul Bert school to rebuild a brand new! A geographical displacement of three years before "joining the base". But three years is important in primary account for 5 years school! the students eventually, for some, their primary others begin, perhaps also that some / certain in firt level this year in the "old school" will return for their last year! It is a little adventure, though hyper organized by the municipality and school services So, the school paid for 3 years, one can only speak walls leaving land is beautiful and we're spoiled! For that, look at the photos attached http://www.cahierdevie.fr/content/view/134/169/ PS: Today, Tuesday, May 27, 2008 we visited the new school! This is superb! I will try to add photos showing the inside when they become available.

Otherwise, access from Paris or suburb are easy by with RER (Nanterre Prefecture station) or with trains (Nanterre - Université).

We enrolled our third daughter at Le Petit Cours du Rocher last year and have been absolutely…read moredelighted with the school. The 50-50 bilingual curriculum was a key factor in our decision - it offered our daughters the unique benefit of being immersed in both the French Education Nationale and the British Curriculum, two complementary approaches to learning. The teachers are both caring and demanding, they find the right balance to bring best out of our daughter, letting them thrive academically, without putting them under high pressure. The school also benefits from having its own courtyard and is ideally located near two parks, Tereska and Rothschild. Our daughters have since continued their education at Fénelon, one of the top schools in Paris.

This is hands-down, the best school you will find, in all the western suburbs of Paris. Perhaps the…read morebest, even including Paris. My daughter started here at age 4, and what the French call moyenne section (it's a year before kindergarten). Upon arrival, she could not count to more than 29 in English and she spoke not one word, a French. She knew her alphabet, but didn't know all the sounds of the alphabet in English. After 1 year at the school before she started kindergarten/Grandesection, my daughter could read English and when I say, read English, I mean very complicated sentences not just " Jack Sat or the rat" she was doing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and she could count to 100 in both French & English. The school has a Wednesday program for English and it also has evening programs where you can leave your child there until 6:30 PM/ 18h30 and choose the language the child is exposed to during the evening program. During my daughter's second year, I chose to put her in the evening program so she could have more exposure to French.. she did not attend the Wenesday program as it's for English and she doesn't need any English. She attended the school four days a week and she had 20 hours of English instruction and 18 hours a French instruction per week. At the start of her second year in September she really couldn't speak much French and I was a bit disappointed but with the addition of the evening program, she was speaking French by March. In the school starting at age 5, you can sign your child up for pony they go from 11 AM to 16h twice a month to do pony. They also go on a ski trip all together for six days in the alps without their parents, and they can go at age 4, and at age 5. At age 6 they go elsewhere, sometimes to the sea where they can swim and go boating. They have art exhibits that exhibit the children's artwork.. and like all Montessori schools there is an emphasis on emotional and social development on top of quite a rigorous in my opinion, academic program. It should be noted that at the age of four and five a child is either in the French section or in the English section. This is because they need to learn to read and one language first. My daughter was in the English section. That's why she got 20 hours of English instruction. But she also had the opportunity to have 18 hours in French instruction. Children in the French section had 20 hours a French instruction and they could have 18 hours of English instruction if they put their child in the evening program and additional 2 1/2 hours on Wednesday morning. Try to find any other school where you can have that much English instruction. If you speak French at home and you really want your child to be in the English section on top of an English speaking evening program & in an English speaking Wednesday program then you could have 32 hours of English instruction per week. Other schools in the area will tell you, that they are bilingual and at best they'll give you maybe 45 minutes a day for four days. I think it's not enough. Finally, I will say., there are other schools that also called themselves a bilingual Montessori program in Versailles and they even have the same name as this school but in fact they're not at all related to the school. If you want to attend the school, make sure you talk to Veronique who is the head Director and make sure that you're at the school located at the train station of gare de Montreuil. My daughter is now in first grade at the school with a French call CP and what this school calls junior section. And she is absolutely beyond happy. The teachers of the kindest ever I have absolutely no worries. With them. And if I ever need something they are the first to help me even in my every day life outside of school with my daughter. Honestly you can't get better than the school and if anyone tells you differently, I strongly suggest you don't believe them. The have personalities and issues!

I had two instructors, Jacqueline and Agnes, and both were very good. Jacqueline is more dynamic, Agnes more reserved, but both are outstanding. I am retired, but there were students of all ages. I doubt there are markedly better schools and the quartier is hard to beat - I walked across the Champs de mars every day to class.

They have several different levels you can choose from. If you want to take a less intensive course of 20 hours a week you can do that or you can take the intensive course closer to 40 hours a week. They also have courses for business professionals as well. It is full immersion...no English allowed! They teach by living it, you are learning by songs, poems, acting out skits, they give you different worksheets for homework and lots of talking in the class. You have no choice but to learn French. On top of that you live there so you are able to use the language in your everyday life. I went from VERY beginner to intermediate in just a few months. The other nice thing is that you change teachers every week, and you change classes according to your speaking level...if you need some more work you stay in the class, if they think you can move on they change your class. They can help set you up with a family to live with or you can just find an apartment like I did. There is also a metro station right next to the school so it is easy to get to...along with that the area has tons of shopping and small cafe's all around it. The pizza place next door is amazing!!! I met so many cool people here that I still keep in touch with and have met up with since leaving the school. They have students come in from all over the world so you meet an awesome group of people. If you want to take a French immersion class this is really the place to do it! This type of experience will change your life for the better

From the outside, it does appear gothic in the style of architecture with wrought-iron fencing surrounding the main buildings.
