At the end of the 1st trimester, everyone gets to experience a real tradition. The Christmas market “X-mas @ AL”, is not only appreciated by students, parents, teachers, staff members and alumni who are committed to creating a festive atmosphere, but also by the entire school community. On the special day, the Athénée BECOMES a Christmas market: the most diverse culinary preparations flatter the palate with beautiful perfumes, artisanal creations, and products from the Athénée Action-Humanitaire, that all invite you to “fill up on gifts” for loved ones while a festive atmosphere is brought to you by a collection of musical performances throughout the day. In short, the end-of-year celebrations always start a little earlier at the AL, and since all the profits from the day support the NGO’s projects, the love of Christmas is intensified even more by solidarity.
