Bim bilingual preschool and elementary schools

Originally from Turkey, we moved from the UK to France at the end of 2023 and were warmly welcomed into the school. Although Bade didn’t speak French at first, the support from her teachers and head teacher helped her become fully trilingual. The school’s inclusive and caring environment made her feel safe, happy, and valued. Even though we are now moving to a new school due to another relocation, we will deeply miss this wonderful community.

Thank you for an incredible two years. Our two children (in Grande Section and CE1) arrived at Bim School without speaking French and with a very different background. With your support, they have become inquisitive, responsible students who are comfortable in both English and French. In a positive and nurturing environment, they have grown academically and personally. We are grateful for the school’s role in shaping the people they are becoming.

We are truly sad to leave Boulogne, and especially for Bade to leave Bim School. It has been a very special place for her, supporting not only her education but also her emotional and social development. Thanks to your efforts, she discovered France and its language while maintaining her English beautifully. We are deeply grateful for the care, encouragement, and understanding you provided.

At Bim School Boulogne, children are cared for as whole individuals, with well-being and kindness going hand in hand with high standards. Everything is done to help them engage and reach their full potential. For parents, communication with the staff is easy and reassuring. A heartfelt thank you to Mélanie and her team, your school is a true success. It’s only a pity there is no middle school, as Élise will be very sad to leave after CM2.
