At Château Beaumont we can offer you as much or as little French as you require. We are not teachers and do not try to be; we are experts in using French on a daily basis. We are enthusiastic about it with the children and our staff alike, and enthusiasm about language is infectious.
School visits to France with Château Beaumont are differentiated by our attentiveness to your needs and the fact that we usually only have three schools on site. On the one hand this means that every teacher and pupil is a name, not a number. It also means we can really focus on French if you’d like us to. In fact, it is our way of life.
You can expect to ask for food in French at every mealtime, to learn the activities in French and to use French whenever possible around site.
Our Group Leaders know the stall holders at the market, have good personal relationships with the owners of the Cheese and Cider Farms and use French every day in the local community – this means they are ideally placed to encourage use of French amongst our visiting schools.
Our senior staff live within that community, our supplies are ordered from that community and our staff are at the disposition of that community when there is a village event that needs extra manpower.
In the past we have been able to arrange surveys on the streets of Laval, interviews and even a group discussion with the Maire. What might you like for your school visit to France? Let us know and see if we can help.
