School
Our partner school is located in a beautiful 1820s-style house, which has been recently renovated and is very well-equipped. There is a bar/restaurant on the ground floor, which acts as a cafeteria. The school is in the centre of the historical part of the town. It is relatively small and therefore benefits from a friendly, family atmosphere, ideal for making friends and for asking academic questions. There are 6 well-equipped and bright classrooms and a resource centre with computers with Internet access.Courses
