Lycée international de Calgary’s renovations offer students a new building, revamped spaces and a unified campus.
Lycée international de Calgary has successfully completed a multi-year expansion, culminating in a modernized, spacious learning environment, designed to match the high standard of its academic programs.
The centrepiece of the renovation is a new building for the school’s maternelle (French for preschool and kindergarten). This significant addition was key to connecting the previously separated learning space, creating one cohesive campus for the youngest students to join the rest of the lycée.
The new space offers eight spacious classrooms for kids aged three to five and even has its own gym.
“The spaces are bigger and brighter. They’re much more conducive to the type of learning environment that we want to provide,” says Stéphane Massinon, the school’s director of advancement. “As a whole lycée, it just really connects the school as one campus. Our goal is that kids will start at the maternelle and go all the way up to grade 12 with us.”
The school celebrates its 60th anniversary this year. As one of the oldest independent schools in the city and the only school in the province to offer a dual curriculum from France and Alberta, it continues to evolve to provide excellent student experiences.
Beyond the new building, Lycée international de Calgary revamped exterior spaces, adding new play structures, a basketball court, a new field and parking.
“Having new modern spaces really means that our facilities can live up to the high value of our programs,” says Massinon. “The physical space now matches the quality of what we teach. Together, it just makes for a really powerful force.”
