  • Description:

    Chers parents,

    Join us for a winter full of fairy tale fun in French! Have you ever wanted to play a prince, princess, king or queen? Do the singing seven dwarfs or magical fairies tickle your fancy? Our camp is just the right place to try out different roles from different fairy tales while learning a language.The camp sessions are Monday - Friday from 9:30am to 2:30pm. We do warm up games, movement activities, theater games to prepare our little actors for the stage. We then choose a fairy tale that we will rehearse and act out as a group. Each child picks their own role and of course we have costumes to complete the transformation! On Fridays at 1pm, there is a presentation for friends and family.

    Please bring a snack and lunch for your children.

    This camp is intended for children with a good knowledge of French. The class will be conducted entirely in French as will the final presentation. 

    Ages 5-10 years old.

    PIAF: HER STORY... HER SONGS celebrates the extraordinary life of the legendary Edith Piaf through her songs. French jazz singer and recording artist Raquel Bitton is internationally recog- nized as the leading interpreter of Edith Piaf’s repertoire and has performed at three sold-out shows at Carnegie Hall. In the film, Bitton performs her most famous songs and takes us on a moving and emotional journey through Piaf’s tempestuous life.
