In the first term, parents organized a first Toy Fair entitled "Tidy your room". It was an opportunity for families to sort through games, children's/teenagers' clothing and childcare equipment… The sale was accompanied by activities for children and a snack stand.

Open and inclusive, the association works with the François-Mitterrand primary school. The APE3M wishes to bring together the school’s parents in a group dynamic; commit to acting in a secular and independent manner; interact with stakeholders in the school and extracurricular spheres; support educational and educational projects; provide material and financial assistance to the school; develop cultural activities…
