During the summer, a junior language camp is held at the same language and activity centre in the picturesque village of Les Sciernes, providing small-group French classes alongside a host of summer mountain pursuits. With a high ratio of staff to students, you can rest assured that your child is in the best hands - but beware they may not want to come home!
