Getting to know so well French or Spanish students of the same age is a great help in getting a real feel for their language and culture. For the residentail option, students arrive on Sundays and depart on Saturdays.

Optional summer trip to France is planned.
Details on request.

Sporting activities are the normal ones for students of their age. These include a number of adventure sports such as orienteering, hiking, swimming in the sea, etc. Unless otherwise indicated to us, parental permission for the boys to take part in these activities is presumed.
