LEST WE FORGET - N'OUBLIONS PAS

Sous les rouges coquelicots des cimetières flamands, Qui parmi les rangées de croix bougent dans le vent, Nous sommes enterrés. 
Et dans le bleu des cieux, Les alouettes encore lancent leur cri courageux
Que plus personne n’entend sous le bruit des canons.

Nous sommes morts : il y a à peine quelques jours, Nous connaissions les joies de la vie, de l’amour,
La fraicheur de l’aurore, les lueurs du ponant.
Maintenant nos corps sans vie reposent en sol flamand.


Nos mains inanimées vous tendent le flambeau : C’est à vous, à présent, de le tenir bien haut,

De contre l’ennemi reprendre la querelle.
Si vous ne partagez des morts la foi rebelle, Nos corps ne pourront pas dormir paisiblement
Sous les rouges coquelicots des cimetières flamands.

BACK by popular demand! FRENCH made FUN! Workshop Baby/Toddler/Preschool/School age/Adults

FRENCH made FUN! Workshop Baby/Toddler/Preschool/School age/ Adults
Bonjour Mes Amis! 

Studies have shown that learning a foreign language at an early age has so many hidden advantages.


Image result for frenchOur classes are conducted in a playful group setting to promote positive reinforcement and ensure that the children remain engaged throughout. All our programs are specifically designed for children from birth on up. Learning a language is similar to learning to play an instrument and requires fine repetitive practice. We encourage parents to get involved and make language learning a family experience. 

**Laura Dee teaches French the easy way; through non-traditional methods like songs, games, stories and more, all in a playful and fun group setting.
