FAQ Escalade Race

No worries, we have a solution!<br>Please send us the details of your registration to: floescalade@apef.ch and we will transfer everything after the official registration is closed, around mid november. You will receive an email confirmation then.

No, the Institut will not register the student to the race, parents are responsible to do so via the APEF website.

We receive a list of all active credit from the escalade association and will deduct it from your invoice.

All registration of a non Florimont individual will be charged to the family doing the registration. Nonetheless, we encourage you to limit it to the inner family.

Please do contact us as soon as possible at: floescalade@apef.ch with all the details and our volunteers will do their best to adjust it directly with the Escalade association.

From November onwards, a list of all registered runners will be published on our website and Pronote but also displayed on the primaire’s main gate, which will allow you to check regularly.
