Are local sports classes and/or activities available for kids?

Yes, any type of sports or activity you can think of is available but most will be French only. The international schools offer a full complement of after school activities that you pay extra for.

Yes. ISB has myriad after-school activities to choose from. Each commune has its own programs, as well. And, of course, there is a vast private community of resources. For instance, our daughter takes once-weekly tap dance lessons. These are given by a local British woman. We also found a piano teacher locally. - Feb 2019
