School day trips

Educational activities for all levels

The Pays d’Aubagne et de l’Étoile offers a wide range of full-day and half-day school trips covering a variety of topics included in the curriculum.

Discovering Provençal craftsmanship

The region is renowned for its craft traditions, particularly those involving clay, ceramics and santons. Pupils discover these Provençal crafts through visits to workshops and meetings with passionate craftspeople. To extend the experience back in the classroom, second-grade santons can be purchased and then personalised and painted as part of an educational project.

Your opinions count

Primary School (Years 1–2)Beaucaire

I wanted to thank you very much for your availability, responsiveness and efficiency. It has been a great pleasure working with you. Many thanks also for the personal, educational and cultural qualities of all your staff. Once again, a huge thank you for this trip, which was a resounding success with the children and their parents… and with me too. You have given us some truly wonderful memories to cherish for a lifetime!!!

Paul Langevin SchoolLa Garde

Young and old alike thoroughly enjoyed themselves. She is an extremely professional person who knows the world of Pagnol inside out, and is kind and attentive to everyone. Naturally, the pupils had read *La Gloire de mon Père* beforehand, watched the film, and seen a few clips from *Toine le Bossu*…A school trip can only be a success if the children have prepared for it beforehand; the scenes from the book that they’ve imagined come to life thanks to the on-site walk. Many thanks to you all, and see you next year!

Mermoz Primary School, Year 2Aubagne

We had a facilitator of the very highest calibre: highly knowledgeable in the information she provided; the activities she suggested were perfectly suited to the pupils’ ages; her teaching approach was excellent (appropriate vocabulary, a review at the end of each session); and she managed the pupils perfectly (movement, speaking in class). I would like to thank her for her professionalism and dedication.
