Our school project has two main objectives :

The LARPS has participated in European projects since 2004 (including training periods abroad in Spain, Ireland and Great Britain within LEONARDO DA VINCI and ERASMUS+ programs) and hosts European volunteers since September 2017. As volunteers, they have the opportunity to work closely with the students, the teachers and the employees of the school, in order to create an intercultural environment (by organising projects, extra curricular activities, linguistic activities...).

The hosting of European volunteers is coordinated by Pistes-Solidaires, who is responsible of the external tutoring and the administrative follow-up of the project we participate in. The volunteers are in contact with other European volunteers who are hosted in other local organisations in our Department: Pyrénées-Atlantiques.
