L'École des Premières Lettres

My partner and I highly recommend the École des Premières Lettres. Our children have never been so happy and fulfilled. We had originally enrolled our children in a public school and the living environment of this school unfortunately did not suit my boy, which greatly affected his performance and his self-esteem.

We chose the École des Premières Lettres because we were looking for a school on a human scale, with a beautiful living environment, with committed support staff who had the time and resources to take care of our children. We found much more. We feel like we have joined a family!

Our children have been attending this school for 3 years now and they are happy, fulfilled and have never had such strong and positive self-esteem.

We travel 2 hours a day (2x round trip) to transport the children, but it's such a small inconvenience for all the benefits we get in return from this school.

A big THANK YOU to the entire École des Premières Lettres family. Training you into beautiful little humans.

Two weeks after the start of the school year, we moved from public to private, from “patient” to client. From traditional teaching to project-based learning, with more sport and English, robotics, agriculture and cooking workshops, among others.

We moved from an inflexible system to an environment better suited to the student. We have swapped the labels of “annoying” and “ADHD” for curious and endearing children full of potential.

My son quickly made new friends, he is proud in his uniform and we love our new routine where we can sleep an extra hour in the morning, walk together to school and where I don't have to not have to struggle with terrible bus service.

Her teacher is one of the most patient and enthusiastic teachers I have ever known in my life, even though she has 30 students in her class. I even have the chance to go there sometimes to participate in independent workshops, it's great! My son never did so well in school and he stopped saying he didn't like school.

The schoolyard supervisors are also very nice.

I recommend this school to everyone.

As a parent whose child has been attending l'École des Premières Lettres in Montreal, I have to say that the teaching staff are not only knowledgeable and skilled but also demonstrate a genuine passion for education. My 9 year old son is thriving and is very happy and enthusiastic to go to school everyday. The school offers a well-rounded education that goes beyond traditional academics, incorporating sports (3,5 hrs/ week), robotics, agriculture and English (3 hrs/week) into the curriculum. This approach ensures that students receive a comprehensive and diverse learning experience. I am absolutely delighted with this school!

We love our school! My son is very happy, what a joy to see him happy every day. The staff are friendly and know all the students. The activities are varied, we are very happy with our choice.

The teachers and staff are amazing and show great attention to every detail of my child's school life.
