On Thursday, during our visit, the older children were cutting out planets under the expert eye of Lilian from the astronomy club, while the younger children were making drawings in the company of Hector, a character from elsewhere, “but it is very nice,” said the young people.
Theme weeks

The outing to the swimming pool followed by a barbecue met with unanimous approval. “And on Friday, we organize a fair with the parents. “At the heart of the pyramids” and “the Middle Ages” are the themes that feature on the menu for the last two weeks of vacation. “We propose but we do not impose anything. The children are free to play, to read, to do nothing, it is important that they feel good. Of course, there are calm times, it is essential. »
