BonjourKidz offers opportunities for children to enjoy learning French in a fun and active way.

​​

Gabrielle is a native French speaker who came to England after obtaining a degree at a French University. Whilst raising her twins, she gained a Level 3 in Childcare and followed numerous primary language development programs accredited by Brighton & Hove Council. Gabrielle is training at the moment to become a Forest School Leader.  

 

Gabrielle has always been passionate about introducing French to young children. She believes it is the key to gaining the confidence to speak French or any other modern language later on in life. She was introduced to her second language, English, at a very early age and it motivated her to join in and speak during her English lessons at secondary school and later on, to live and work in the UK.

 

Gabrielle set up BonjourKidz in 2004 to offer the same opportunity to children and has been teaching in schools and nurseries ever since. 

​

As it was very important for her to raise her own children bilingual, in 2007 she co-founded the non-profit association Les Franglophones to support French bilingual families. ​

​

Gabrielle has set up a French Forest School in April 2020  to create a relaxed and calm environment surrounded by nature. We welcome parents who can speak French and offer a French immersion for the children. 



All teachers are carefully selected and are:

 

• Native French speakers.

• Qualified and experienced with working with children.

• CRB checked.

• Insured (personal liability insurance).
