Unlock a world of culture, art and opportunity for your child with our French classes for kids. The fifth most widely spoken language on the planet, French is spoken on all five continents across the globe. It is the language of the arts, fashion and gastronomy, and opens doors in the higher education and international job markets.

We offer four French for kids programs, based around the age of participants, and tailored to their developmental stages with age-appropriate lessons, activities and materials.

A boost for the brain

Research has found that children who learn a second language may be more creative, better at problem solving, faster learners, and find it easier to connect with different cultures.

Children also find it much easier than adults to learn a second (or third) language because the language centre of their brain is still in development.
