A school year with our Association APE

​

Throughout the year, we actively participate in school life, in the school councils and during preparatory meetings with the management. We also organise activities and events for the children, teachers, and parents.  

The school year is divided into five terms separated by school holidays, the dates of which are listed in the school calendar on the Lycée's website..

 

March-April

In April, APE participates in the Olympics organised by the school for primary students by providing a snack.

 APE organises mock  interviews for Première students with the help of parent volunteers.

 

May-June

The third and final school councils are held.

 APE organises the Fête de l'Ecole for primary school children at the end of June, with many parent volunteers.

For the secondary school,  APE supports student projects.

All year long

 APE listens to parents on collective issues and acts as their intermediary with the school.

Thanks to the Fédération des établissements d’enseignement français à l’étranger (FAPEE), of which  APE is a member, webinars are offered to parents related to specific questions concerning our children at different stages of their development.
