As a bilingual School of Excellence, Union School Paris’ priority is to offer children as many experiences as possible. Stimulating, socialising, structuring, exhilarating, it is through these experiences that their incredible cognitive abilities will be multiplied, opening up a multitude of opportunities.
This is why we have designed the Union School Academy: a Wednesday afternoon club that offers children the opportunity to learn while having fun. The workshops offered have been developed with partners who are specialists in early childhood, chosen for their professionalism and caring. Their programme is perfectly in line with the school’s educational philosophy.
Perfectly supervised, the children give free rein to their creativity, unleash their energy, and set out to conquer their multiple talents.

This workshop is as much for the mind as for the body ! Warning, only 10 places !
1pm, it’s off to 1h30 of coding with Fun Tech Adventures and the wonderful Lysa, who will introduce your children to Scratch – in English, of course – starting with the theme of music. Because with code, you can create almost anything ! They’ll learn how to reproduce and even compose their own melodies using a computer. They will then discover Python, which they will use to code games, and finally have the opportunity to learn about artificial intelligence. With the help of this powerful tool, they’ll learn to compose images, videos and even… write poetry !
Every Wednesday for an hour and a half, we’ll turn their computers into tools and means of expressing their creativity, while learning to master the technologies of today and tomorrow !
At 2.40pm, departure for the Société Sportive du Jeu de Paume et de Racquets in a private shuttle bus. Once there, after climbing the beautiful wooden staircase at 74ter rue Lauriston, the children will be greeted by the flags of Great Britain, the United States, Australia and France and taken care of by the Société Sportive du Jeu de Paume et de Racquets team. They will start with a 30-minute introduction to Real Tennis on Paris unique, magnificent and historic court.
There’s no doubt that your children will soon be wowing the crowds (one of the 10 French expressions coined at the Jeu de Paume) ! The players will then have 1 hour of squash, a sport that has become extremely popular in the United States and which will be one of the disciplines at the 2028 Games in Los Angeles !
After a few minutes to quench their thirst in the club’s friendly bar, it’s back to Union School by shuttle bus !
It’s over!

Follow the adventures of Hayo the robot and learn how computers work, create algorithms, programme a robot, code in binary, and all this without using any screen. How does it work? You read, imagine, draw, and manipulate the concepts with the help of an English speaker.
Let’s do this with Colori and Union School! Because the world is eminently technological and it is as essential to master its notions as it is to know how to read, write or count. Because technology is an integral part of the general culture of the 21st century. Because learning to code develops many other skills : the ability to abstract and solve problems, logical thinking, mathematics, vocabulary, etc.
Because it is more than necessary to learn this new language! And no one would think of waiting until the age of 6. Because it’s fun.
Club open if a minimum of 10 children are registered. Max. 16 children
Starting date : 20/09/23
