Students are housed on two luxury campuses comparable to little “Junior Club Meds”, a few minutes’ walk from the beaches and center.
The buildings are enclosed and surrounded by gardens and offer dual occupancy air-conditioned rooms with all mod cons. Students will hang out in the gardens, television room, multipurpose hall or any of the little nooks and crannies popular with young people who want to take advantage of the Wi-Fi.
Opting for a ‘Premium’ French immersion camp means experiencing the best the Côte d’Azur has to offer.
On the weekly program: A full day at the weekend to go to a waterpark or water-ski-ing at a watersports center or otherwise bathing on a catamaran. A half-day excursion but first and foremost a rolling program of activities with zorbing, aerial yoga, Laser Quest, kayaking, jet ski-ing, a private beach.
The team of leaders is on-hand 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and also organize pool games, host parties and take them on trips to the beach.
Kids and teens are supervised from their arrival at Nice Côte d’Azur airport, Antibes station or the residence reception. From that moment on, the team of leaders will remain on-hand and will oversee permission to leave the residence.
Our junior students can benefit from parental permission to leave the school without supervision. Below are the different options offered by the school according to the student's age. Please note that age is determined by the full date of birth (day, month, year) and not just the year of birth.
Supervision
A team of leaders is on-hand 24 hours a day.
Our leaders are special points of contact for our students and help everyone to integrate well in that little society that is a campus or school. Our leaders with their zest for life, consistent presence and the sense of security they give teens, are a key factor in the success of the camp.
On our campuses, we have strict organizational systems in place in accordance with specific standards: a center director (coordinates all staff), a director of learning (manages the teaching team), a director of activities (manages the team of leaders), a deputy director of activities, security staff on the different floors of the residence when boarders are present and at night.
Security
Strict monitoring of comings and goings!
Leaders record details of any students entering or leaving the premises and ensure that parental permission is complied with and that everyone gets home, leaving nothing to chance. At night, both the director and leaders sleep on-site and night security are on shift from 7:30 p.m.
In the daytime a free shuttle bus service connects the campuses to the town center or beaches. The activities of our kiosk comply with European safety standards.
No permission to leave the residence.
Free to go into town or the beach after activities until dinner at 7:30 p.m.
Permission can be granted for a 10 p.m. curfew from Monday to Thursday and a 1 a.m. curfew on Friday and Saturday evenings.

On the back of its success, the “Premium” French immersion program has opened up to kids and teens aged 8 and over to offer them an introduction to French whilst benefiting from extra attention.
After classes in the morning, leaders are on-hand 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and organize trips to the private beach, watersports and indoor activities, or leave the kids to chill out. Often evenings are dedicated to shows, games or entertainment in French.
For 8- to 11-year-olds, French classes in the morning focus more on age-appropriate fun, overseen by teachers who have experience working with children.
Rather than formal classes, interactive activity in the form of role play which motivates kids to get talking. Everyone wants to speak up to argue their point and naturally gains oral skills whilst overcoming their shyness. The objective is to get the kids used to wanting to argue in French so that they can gain in confidence.
On the grounds of the “Castel Arabel”, which has 24/7 security, the younger kids enjoy their independence and are free to access the pool, gardens, games room and canteen.
A few minutes’ walk from the beaches, this Club residence enables students to enjoy an independent social life.
Leaders are trained to support kids of this age and supervise them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
On the program every week: A full-day excursion (Monaco, water park, treasure hunt), a half-day excursion (trampoline park, Nice, bowling), or a half-day at the private beach, but first and foremost a rolling program of activities with a, an inflatable water park, sailing, treetop adventure course, games and sports.
In the evening, games and parties are organized in the residence. Leaders are trained in working with kids and are attentive to their energy levels.
Kids and teens are supervised from their arrival at Nice Côte d’Azur airport, Antibes station or the campus reception. From this moment on our team of leaders, who are experienced in working with kids of this age, will remain on-hand day and night to offer supervision and reassurance to all.
8-11 year-olds are not permitted to leave the campus.
Juan-les-Pins, the “Fun” quarter of Antibes, is actually the name of the city's finest beach which has become part of the urban development.
Located between Nice and Cannes on the Côte d’Azur, Juan-les-Pins is a student's paradise and can be seen as a young person’s Saint-Tropez.
For 30 years we have been organizing language camps in Juan-les-Pins.
Juan-Les-Pins is a unique blend of a relaxed atmosphere and French chic. In this intimate seaside resort everything is reachable on foot. Students can move around easily between their accommodation, the beaches and the town center, all of which are just a few yards apart.
The “Premium” program is designed to offer students a greater degree of comfort and attention. It offers classes in small groups, exclusive activities and accommodation in air-conditioned rooms in luxury residences.
This camp is a perfect blend of classes and high-end leisure activities. Day to day, everything is done to ensure that kids and teens go home having learned a lot and benefited from many new experiences.
12-year-olds are not permitted to be off-campus without a chaperone whilst over-13s can have free time to go to the beach or go shopping until dinner time.
With a parental release form, 16-17 year-olds can have a 10 pm curfew from Monday to Thursday. On Fridays and Saturdays the curfew is extended to 1 am and the school's shuttle buses bring them back to campus.
Classes are held in a magnificent school with breathtaking sea views and after class students have lunch on-site.
We wanted to build the best and finest French language school in France to make learning French a pleasure. It is a pleasure for students to get to know each other under the covered courtyard, in the gardens or sharing lunch on the patio in full sun.
22 classrooms, a canteen, garden and panoramic views over the Mediterranea
Depending on their language level, assessed by means of an entrance test on the Monday they arrive, students have 3 hours of French lessons every day . Classes use an active teaching method to foster young students’ enthusiasm for learning.
Part one: 2 hours of traditional classes
These standard French courses for teenagers help students to work on four skills (reading, speaking, writing and listening):
Grammar, pronunciation and French culture are also covered alongside these skills, in accordance with the recommendations of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
Part two: 1 hour of oral activities
This hour-long part of the class, which is more active , light-hearted and fun , is aimed at helping students to fall in love with French . Each teacher plans oral activities that complement the first part of the class to encourage interaction and help the young students gain in confidence.
Intensive courses are aimed at students who want to make quick progress . They offer general French classes focused on acquiring the oral, written and grammar skills that are vital at each level. Pronunciation and French culture are also covered.
Depending on students’ level of knowledge and in accordance with the recommendations of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages , teachers devise a weekly programme of more than eighteen hours to help students progress.
Thanks to the active teaching method developed by the Centre International d’Antibes, the teachers are able to hold their young students’ attention and engage them in exercises that work on written and oral expression and comprehension .
No lectures, but instead, an interactive activity in the form of role play which motivates children to speak. Everyone wants to express themselves and defend their ideas and naturally loses their shyness and improve their spoken proficiency.
The goal is to encourage children to make arguments in French so that they grow in confidence.
