General /technical /vocationnal / high studies

• Lycée La Salle Saint-Charles is a traditional

technical, secondary and professional French

high school. We can count today about 2.200

pupils and about 200 teachers. Thanks to the

congregation of Lasallian Brothers (Christian

Schools' Brothers, living according to Saint Jean-

Baptiste de La Salle‘s rules), in 1895 a primary

school opened. In 1950 a junior high school (from

11 to 15 years old) was born and then a high

school (from 15 to 18 years old) opened in 1974.

The school offers a secondary school in which

the pupils (from 15 to 18) prepare economics,

litterature or sciences A’Level , a vocational

school (Administration and Accountancy),

Technical School (Sales, Finance and Human

Resources), a vocational training certificate (2

year study after the A’level ) in International Trade

and Negociations & Customer Relationships , and

2 preparatory classes for Mathematics and Trade

(High Commercial Studies )

MANY LEVELS OF STUDIES

Lycée La Salle Saint-Charles

has a school project called

"Growing and Flourishing"

with shared values as

confidence, respect, living

together. This means that

the school's aim is to help

students do their best. That

is why the chosen fields of

activities are always very

closely linked to the needs

of the regional population,

as well as the European

labour market.

INVOLVEMENT , CHARITY , VOLUNTEERING

( Madagascar , the ageing population , children at hospital…..)

TRIPS : GETTING AQUAINTED WITH NEW CULTURES WHILE IMPROVING LANGUAGE SKILLS • Each year our school organizes

trips in South Africa, Australia, Germany, England China and Italy. Different levels of classes are concerned, but pupils in technical school have to deal with school difficulties and do not often get the opportunity to travel as much as the pupils in classical section . What’s more , students preparing a vocational training certificate in international trade have to make their internship in foreign countries.

A HIGH SCHOOL OPENED worldwide

• We led this year an e-twinning project in

Management (CLIL English) with a Greek class and

a technical section European group (grade 11). The

theme was "Work and Life Balance". We have

practiced as much as possible with software and

web applications through a wiki space. All the

pupils created their QR Codes with their name,

interests and plans for the future

(http://qrstuff.com). we reviewed and discussed

what makes or does not make a company profile

attractive for employees. They shared their

opinions using padlet.com, they created a

wordcloud (http://tagxedo.com). pupils exchanged

opinions on what constitutes and ideal company

and how to make it attractive. They imagined a

Company. They characterized it, created its logo

and motto, they made a short video

(domoanimate.com), they created a press release,

wrote job offers, prepared interviews. They

eventually made their Company presentation,

defined the values, the strategy and its vision

(http://smore.com). They created videos, shared

information about Greece crisis, unemployment,

they exchange information about the different

backgrounds, the specificities of Reunion island.

They created different glogsters glogster.com.

• For this project , our high school was rewarded by

being granted the European label (we were the

only ones on the island )
