After school day care
Workshop

Children are naturally curious, and our goal is to accelerate their path of discovery, equip them with essential, critical thinking tools, as well as a foundation of key scientific and engineering concepts. We want children to carry with them a model of the universe based on skepticism and empirical data.

‍WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BOXING ON A CHILD’S DEVELOPMENT? Boxing is an educational sport that adapts to everyone, whatever the age, provided that it is supervised by an excellent teacher with pedagogy. There are many. There are the physical benefits of course since during a class, the child will exercise a maximum, running, jumping, working the muscles of the whole body and laughing which is excellent for the abs. , there is also an evolution at the mental level. I work with them the psychomotricity (the right, the left, the feet, the hands, etc.) but also the reflexes, the agility, the coordination of the movements. long term, boxing allows a child to gain self-confidence, he is able to achieve goals, to progress, to exceed his limits and that is excellent for the image he has of him. also attaches great importance to teaching them respect for instructions and for each other. It is obviously forbidden to hurt. And I must say that it goes very well. Faced with novelty, children are attentive and The group effect is also beneficial. They observe, imitate and learn together.

Performing and Visual Art

At Bogaerts, we believe that artistic expression is a vital part of a well-rounded education. Our students engage in enriching experiences across both visual and performing arts, allowing them to explore creativity, develop technical skills, and share their unique perspectives with the school community and beyond. Moreover, exposure to diverse artistic traditions from around the world helps students connect with different cultures, broadening their perspective and promoting global awareness.

Music & Performing Arts

Music and performing hold a special place in our school culture, encouraging collaboration, self-expression, and confidence. From the Early Years all the way to the end of MYP, students have the opportunity to participate in musical and theatrical performances, through units such as Jazz Music, Romeo & Juliet, and Film Music. We were honoured to welcome renowned composer Yves Gourmeur, who shared his expertise and creative process with students in an interactive workshop. Our all-girls school band continues to thrive, performing at school events and inspiring younger musicians. Seasonal performances, such as our Christmas Concert, bring the community together in celebration, while the highly anticipated school musical that happens yearly allows students to showcase their vocal, theatrical, and production talents in a spectacular show. Previous musicals include Oceans Odyssey (2022), Oliver! (2023), and Mamma Mia!: The Musical (2024). Through these diverse artistic opportunities, students at Bogaerts not only refine their creative abilities but also develop essential skills such as problem solving, collaboration, and cultural appreciation. Whether through visual art, music, or theatre, we encourage each student to explore their artistic potential and share their vision.

Visual Arts

Our Visual Arts program nurtures creative thinking and technical expertise, providing students with opportunities to showcase their talents in various mediums. Units such as Pop Art, Impressionism, Still Life, allow students to discover different artistic movements and create works that are innovative and inspired. Students proudly present their works at the annual Visual Art Exhibition where they exhibit their artistic growth and conceptual ideas. Additionally, our students make the most of our location in the capital of Europe by embarking on trips to educational and inspiring exhibitions and museums. Students have previously ventured to the Banksy Museum, gaining insight into street art, political messaging, and modern visual storytelling.

Other Visual Arts students have also had the exclusive opportunity to visit Tim Burton’s Labyrinth, an immersive exhibition that delves into the fantastical world of one of the most visionary filmmakers and artists of our time.In MYP4 and MYP 5 the programme is strongly connected to the DP Visual Arts course. Students learn how to make a digital Art portfolio and how to use subject specific terminology to talk about their own artistic practice. They learn to experiment with materials and techniques that serve their artistic purpose(s) to convey meaningful concepts to an audience. Students will discover how to connect famous art pieces from different cultural and historical contexts and analyse them by using the formal elements of Art and composition.
