A fun and engaging learning environment suited to our youngest students. Songs, games, crafts and stories interspersed with educational activities make learning German pure child’s play.

In this class we work on conveying the language in an action-oriented manner by listening to stories, repeating them, and reading. The students work on reading and pronunciation practice, we sing and read rhymes for rhythmic learning. Of course, we also address German festivals and public holidays.

German as a Foreign Language Stream
Students learn German as a foreign language based on the “Daf-Rahmenplan” – the official curriculum developed by the Standing Committee of the German Ministers of Culture and Education. It is based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR)
German as a Second Language Stream
Students understand and speak German effortlessly. They have the benefit of living in a bilingual environment or may have lived abroad. German as Second Language learners follow an adapted German elementary school curriculum. This stream works towards a DSD 1 or even DSD 2 completion.
