Special Activities

Excursions and social events, which the school provides at additional cost, give students even more opportunities to make friends and to practice speaking the language.

- discover local crafts (the making of ‘santons’ (ornamental figures) and calissons)

- participate in cultural events of Aix and the region : the opera festival, the international piano, jazz and theater festivals, carnival, ‘santon’ fair ...

- discover the markets of Aix (flowers, flea markets, secondhand goods, antique dealers, fruit and vegetables, books)

- group activities with other students : ‘pétanque’ competitions, barbecues, meet foreign students, go out at night ...

- painting, theater, sculpture classes

Sports
Water sports, golf, horse-riding, cycling, rock climbing, tennis, hiking (and the nearest ski resorts are two hours away by car!) : Aix-en-Provence is at the centre of very beautiful sites which can be discovered while playing sport.
