Maternelle (TPS-K)

Beginning with our Toute Petite Section class (early preschool for 2 ½ year-olds), French International uses play-based inquiry in a nurturing French immersion learning environment as a springboard to the IB Primary Years Programme which starts in preschool.

Maternelle (Cycle 1 in the French curriculum) is the early childhood program which includes TPS (Toute Petite Section ), preschool, prekindergarten, and kindergarten.
