Living at Ermitage

Our residents, aged 11 to 18, come from around the world to live together in our historic French homes. Ermitage boarding houses offer a safe haven for students to learn and grow together. Our kind and caring staff is always on hand to support and look after our boarders. They gain self-sufficiency, organizational skills and an ability to share their space and experiences. Boarding prepares students to become valuable community members throughout their lives.

Maisons-Laffitte:

a quiet retreat just outside of Paris
 
Boarding students get to experience French life in a beautiful place. The pedestrian-friendly town and green park space of Maisons-Laffitte offer the comfort and safety all families desire for their children, while still allowing easy access to Paris and all of its museums, monuments and cultural events. Right here in town, our boarders have access to shops, bakeries and cafés, giving them fun opportunities to practice their French language skills and taste local delicacies. Being a boarder at Ermitage means enjoying the best of both worlds!
