School

Our partner school is housed in an elegant, three-storey, Colonial style manor, surrounded by beautiful gardens. The renovated classrooms are comfortable and welcoming and, a charming little detail, still heated with wood fireplaces in winter. The school has a computer room and access to a balcony overlooking the garden. Only 10 minutes' walk from the city centre, the school is close to shops, restaurants and cafés, as well as a magnificent waterfront area.
