The primary curriculum exceeds the requirements of the official programme. Students also benefit from a complete intellectual, artistic, physical, musical, and moral education, essential for their personal development.

Bilingualism is present throughout. By the end of the cycle, students often achieve a level allowing them to sit for primary certification exams from several linguistic communities (French-speaking, Dutch-speaking, and English-speaking).

In a joyful and personalised environment, students learn through high-quality traditional teaching methods. Lessons are delivered in both languages (French-Dutch or French-English). Teachers are committed to helping each child excel and develop autonomy in their learning journey.
