28 Days to go...

The opening of the 2024 Olympics in Paris is fast approaching. This year at CJC, we will celebrate Bastille Day and the opening of the Olympic games in Paris, on Friday 26 July all day! 

 

It will be a fun-filled day full of sports and Olympic-themed activities.  More details will be published closer to the date.

 

Get your costume ready, the theme is "The colours of the country you are supporting".

 

We are already getting excited!

 

Volunteers and Prizes needed! We are looking for parent volunteers not only for the event itself but also to help the teachers during the day program.

About the torches

First used at the 1936 Berlin Summer Olympics, the modern torches of the Summer and Winter Olympics are built to resist the effects of wind and rain as they carry the Olympic flame, and bear unique designs that represent the host country and the spirit of the Games.
