Nursery school: from the Petite Section to the Grande Section
On this first day, both parents of new pupils (if they wish) may enter the school playground via the gate on Rue des Mimosas (Rue de la Crèche). They will accompany their child to the classroom door and hand them over to the teacher. Throughout the year, only one adult will be permitted to accompany children when they arrive or leave.
The exit will be via the same point.
Specific arrangements for pupils in the Petite Section:
This is the children’s first term at school. To make it as smooth as possible, the teacher has already sent you details of the start of term by email.
Further information:
– With regard to the VIGIPIRATE security alert level, the protocol drawn up by the Ministry for the 2026–2027 school year remains at the «Enhanced Vigilance» level.
– There are no «school supplies lists»; apart from a pencil case and a school bag, the school provides all school supplies at the start of the year, and you will only be asked to replace any items that have been damaged or lost during the year.
– ENT: Please remember to make a habit, throughout the year, of logging into and using the ENT (school/parent messaging, Absences, Notices, etc.) as soon as the app allows you to do so, as the switch to the new school year has not yet taken place.
Wishing you all a lovely end to the summer, and a great start to the new term! See you soon!
