Hello Emma, I was similarly concerned, although my son is only 5. Much as he enjoys stories, trying to write etc I wanted him to be able to read and write as well in English as in French, and to learn alongside what he was doing at school. So we have started a small group who go to a great teacher who taught the same age group at a bilingual school in Paris, my son loves it and has become great friends with another little boy who goes too. This is my problem. Despite me trying to get parents nearby interested, no-one was really interested! Too busy/too far/child not interested etc....I think at this young age if children are keen to learn it should be encouraged! But my advice to you would be perhaps to try and find something similar, it has to be good fun, otherwise he will lose interest and it will become a battle. Do let me know if you want to know anymore about it etc, and good luck!
