PODCAST. Allophone children, when sport serves as a springboard for learning French

For children whose mother tongue is not French, school can be a difficult test. Sport is another language, more universal, to integrate. Discover our audio report about the preparation of Tout Rennes court, school version.

At Paul Langevin Elementary School, in the Blosne district of Rennes, sport is a universal language. Indeed, in a class of CM1-CM2, some students experience some difficulty in taking classes. And for good reason: they are allophones, in other words French is not their mother tongue. They learn and improve quickly, but when they miss the words, it is not always easy to establish contact with the little comrades.

To help integration, the school focuses on sport, a space of freedom where differences are being erased. All students train twice a week since the start of the school year to prepare for a 1400m, 1800m or 2100m race as part of Tout Rennes Court, a school version, which will take place in Bréquigny Park.

Our journalist Virginie Enée attended one of their training. An audio report to be found on the West-France Podcast Wall and on the various streaming platforms.
