At an international school in Paris, learning goes beyond the classroom. Cultural and educational outings give children and teenagers the opportunity to practice their language skills while discovering the world around them. These experiences foster curiosity, boost self-confidence, and encourage interaction among students from different cultures. To learn how to select the best school for your child, see our guide: How to Choose an International School Paris.
Benefits for Language Learning
Leaving the classroom allows students to use French and English in real, stimulating contexts. These activities:
- Build students’ confidence and autonomy
- Encourage interaction between peers and teachers in a new setting
- Offer opportunities to apply vocabulary and language structures learned in class
At Cours Molière – International School, the Cultures & Languages program perfectly illustrates this approach by offering varied activities that spark curiosity and promote intercultural exchange.
Activities Adapted to Each Level
Kindergarten
For the youngest students, outings are designed to be playful and sensory:
- Museum visits adapted for children
- Educational games that stimulate creativity
- Sensory experiences that develop curiosity and language skills
These experiences allow children to practice bilingualism in real situations while exploring the world around them.
Primary School
Primary students participate in more structured educational outings:
- Museums and exhibitions to deepen knowledge
- Theater and artistic activities to develop creativity and oral expression
- Visits to historical monuments to understand local history and culture
These activities stimulate bilingualism and encourage active communication in French and English while broadening cultural horizons.
Middle School
For middle school students, the Cultures & Languages program, held mainly on Friday afternoons, includes:
- Workshops on school newspapers, comics, and music production
- Debates and collaborative projects to strengthen oral expression and critical thinking
- Practical explorations such as Paris history or bicycle repair
The goal is to create an immersive environment where students apply language skills in real contexts while fostering curiosity and critical thinking.
