The Team

meetles marronniers team

Led by Educational Director Ybeth, seven experienced, bilingual educators work together to guide your children, and our future, throughout the first part of their learning journey at Les Marronniers.

The nursery team uses its combined 80 years’ experience to channel the children’s spontaneity and zest for life into stimulating indoor and outdoor learning experiences. And all in two languages, like at its sister school, Haut-Lac International Bilingual School.

With 1 bilingual, 3 native English and 4 native French educators, the team’s members each speak to the children in their language so as to encourage a balanced use of English and French on a daily basis. And in doing so, the tiny tots are able to kick-start their journey to bilingualism from day one.

A journey built on the exciting exchanges and special moments of song, dance, art and exploration described by Les Marronniers staff below.
