Welcome
At Au Petit Bonheur we help your little one discover the wonder
in everyday things, to nurture a lifelong love of learning
The Au Petit Bonheur difference
Hands-on learning and DIY
Children are like little sponges and love discovering what they can do by themselves; we encourage independence in learning and support them to discover, imagine and create with what they have.
Safety and pastoral support
The safety and wellbeing of your child is our highest priority. Find out about how we nurture personalised and inclusive learning, provide psychosocial support and warmly welcome family involvement at Au Petit Bonheur.
An earthy, unplugged curriculum
A little refuge in our increasingly digital world, our preschool focuses on tenderly guiding your child’s innate sense of wonder to foster real-life community, re-imagine everyday objects and connect with nature.
What our parents are saying
"It is with a heavy heart that we leave your wonderful school. I will remember the excellent approach you had with my two sons, the particularly warm and reassuring welcome from your team, the professionalism in monitoring each child, and the passion for your profession that is evident in the consistent quality of your teaching throughout the year. I'll never stop singing your praises! A big, heartfelt thank you!"
"I only have the best things to say after 3 years of being part of Au Petit Bonheur. The teachers love the children and educate them step-by-step for their later stages of school life. Meaningful work is done in all areas without exaggeration. The student-led approach, always within a tenderly structured framework, offers the children the freedom and security they need. I definitely can see my child's intellectual progress from year to year thanks to the experiential learning and family-like environment. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you do for my child!"
"We have loved how the school has done so persistent and loving work with our kids always keeping a modest, down to earth approach and concentrating on what really matters. We have loved being part of all this. The “Au Petit Bonheur” community has made a lot of a difference to our family, our happiness, the way we passed those difficult preschool years with 4 kids under 5 years old. The way you have treated and helped our children has made them better people and us a better family. It is an asset they will have for the rest of their lives."
"If I had another child, I would enrol them at Au Petit Bonheur in a heartbeat because it is a school that focuses on respecting the pupil and their needs, helping them to become autonomous and responsible. The teachers are highly motivated and well-trained, and what I really appreciate is that they do not act according to social or economic pressures. On the contrary, they always prioritise pedagogy and work in the best interest of the child."
"As the grandfather of one of your young pupils, I cannot contain my enthusiasm when I observe, during our bi-weekly meetings with my granddaughter, her gradual verbal and, most importantly, the phrastic development in her speech, which is far richer than that of her siblings who are ten years older. For a 4-year-old child to grasp meaning so well, it is evident that someone has taught her incredibly well. Thank you."
