Bilingual communication is one of our priorities

During the Primary school stage, our students develop skills to express themselves orally and in writing fluently using English as the vehicular language.

From Year 2 until Year 7 our students learn 50% of the day in English and the other 50% in Spanish.

Our students start learning French in first grade.

Very pleasant and calm atmosphere. High academic standards with very involved teachers who care about getting to know and understand their students.
