Just wanted to let you know how much Mairead appears to be thriving this year. She seems to come home each day with new learnings and enthusiasms. Her art in particular has really become a love for her and she is obviously so happy in her learning environment as she is learning to read, count, write. We are quite amazed at how she is doing this year.

Lucia has only been able to go one year, but even in such a short period of time, she is so happy, she loves her teachers…I feel so so lucky to have had the opportunity to bring my children to ISB, hopefully we’ll return someday to Pau and they can go back to this happy place that is ISB.

Early Years

I really want to thank you for making possible such an amazing school, where Douglas, after 5 years, has grown and gained in confidence so much. He has learned and worked hard, and the most important for me, he’s been happy to go to school every single day.

We can hardly put into words how grateful we are for everything that the school and his teachers have done for Sam. He arrived to France like a little guy who was barely beyond his toddler years, who was just about familiar with the alphabet and barely able to write his name. He will leave a confidant little boy, who can read and write, is full of information and is clearly capable of so much more than we had ever given him credit for! Most importantly, he has adored his first year of formal school, seemingly enjoying every single aspect, from outings, (WOW Socoa!) to art to music (WOW the Christmas Show) to sports (WOW the ISB Olympics!!!). His values have been so well guided by the school, and we see that he has learned how to behave so nicely and knows how to show adults and children respect and kindness. In summary, ISB is a wonderful school and we are so very glad we chose to send him there. Thank you !!!
