Le Petit Cours du Rocher is a bilingual preschool and primary school founded in 1953, offering a caring and personalized education within a small, human-scale structure. With classes limited to 20 students, the school provides a safe environment and high-quality teaching, combining the French National Education curriculum with the British Curriculum, through a balanced language immersion (50% French / 50% English).
The school welcomes children from Toute Petite Section (age 2) through CM2 (Grade 5) across two campuses: Rue du Rocher (preschool) and Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré (preschool and primary). The latter also offers a wide range of academic and extracurricular activities, including “Engineering for Kids”, Chinese language clubs, unique in France at the preschool level.
Our ambition is to “help the mind, the hands, and the heart grow.”
Since 2021, hihilulu has partnered with Cours du Rocher to deliver structured and engaging Chinese language programs for students with no prior exposure to Mandarin.
For kindergarten children aged 3 to 6, the Enlightenment Chinese Language Workshop offers a joyful first encounter with Chinese language and culture. Through songs, interactive activities, storytelling, and traditional arts and crafts, children develop early language awareness and cultural curiosity in a playful learning environment. Sessions are held once a week.
For elementary school students, the Advanced Chinese Language Course is delivered twice a week in one-hour sessions, following the progressive Hihilulu Atelier curriculum. The program supports step-by-step language development and is specifically designed for non-Chinese-speaking learners without a Chinese-speaking home environment.
In addition to weekly courses, hihilulu organizes theme-based Chinese vacation camps, extending learning beyond the classroom through immersive projects and cultural exploration. Supported by hihilulu’s digital content and physical learning materials, students benefit from a consistent Chinese language environment both at school and at home.
