Classical Arabic for children — as a mother tongue.

A weekly program for children aged six to fifteen, designed to plant classical Arabic in the heart of the child long before grammar is ever named.

How children learn here

Through stories, songs, drawings, and short plays — all in fully voweled classical Arabic. The child's first encounter with the language is joy, not rules.

Three age groups

  • Cubs (6–8) — letters, sounds, short stories, songs.
  • Sparrows (9–11) — reading short books, first writing, simple grammar games.
  • Falcons (12–15) — classical texts, real grammar, the beginning of poetry.

For families abroad

Many of our children are growing up in francophone or anglophone homes. We work closely with parents to build a small daily ritual of Arabic at home — even ten minutes a day is enough.

Weekly format

One sixty-minute class per week, on Saturday or Sunday. Small groups of eight children maximum, always with the same teacher.
