Each weekly, half-day program includes a combination of the following workshops:
– Scientific exploration and material manipulation: Children will discover through physical exploration, the magic of reality: properties, states and transformation of matter; mass & density; motion, acceleration, friction, gravity; light and colour; plants & animals, etc.
– Arts & Crafts: From colouring to cutting and pasting, learning to work with tools is crucial from very early childhood. The development of intelligence is correlated with the development of hand-eye coordination. Producing quality manual work requires a great deal of attention and concentration. Intellectual resources are therefore fully used.
– Outdoor and indoor organized athletic activities, including Yoga for young children. Through fun and interactive exercises, children will discover the benefits of teamwork, improve balance, coordination, and flexibility.

Each weekly, half-day program includes a combination of the following workshops:
– Young Engineers Simple & Compound Machines: Students will build machines using LEGO®️ Technics bricks to understand basic mechanical engineering principles and concepts to include the concepts of force, energy, and motion. The machines will be based on one or a combination of levers, inclined planes, screws, wedges, wheels and axles, pulleys and gears.
– Young Engineers – Powered Machines: Powered Machines is a continuation of Simple and Compound Machines. Students will build increasingly complex machines using motorized LEGO® Technic bricks to understand more advanced mechanical and electrical engineering principles and concepts.
– Young Engineers – Mechanical Computers and Introduction to Coding: This workshop explores how computers function and the basics of computer engineering. Children will discover how mechanical switches, connected together, can do smart things. Students will build computing machines to understand basic computer engineering.
– Multi-Sport is a program of team athletics. Each term, students will participate in various competitive sports. The goal of the program is to promote active, outdoor, competitive play, build teamwork and good sportsmanship habits.
This program includes the following three workshops:
Science Discovery
This workshop explores science “essentials”— ideas and thinking tools necessary for science learning. Good thinkers listen or read carefully and question whether what they see or hear is true and accurate. This habit of questioning and evaluating the value of any claim is called critical thinking. In this workshop, students will discover what science is, how scientists think critically, recognize and minimize cognitive bias, how to apply the scientific method, and how to design a controlled experiment. Throughout the workshop, students will explore the basic concepts of measurement, probability & statistics, forces, motion, and waves and more complex concepts including matter, energy, heat, light, basic chemistry, cosmology, evolution, climate & environment.- all while encouraging investigation skills.
Introduction to Coding & Robotics
During this workshop, students will use algorithm design languages, including SCRATCH, JAVA Script, and PYTHON to create interactive games. With the LEGO®️ MINDSTORMS®️ EV3 kit, students design and build programmable robots using high quality motors, sensors, gears, wheels, axles, and other technical components. Students will design, build and program their robots using creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and communication skills. The course motivates students to plan, predict, test, problem-solve, analyze, and explore.
Introduction to Digital Photography
This workshop covers basic concepts and practice of digital photography, including understanding and use of the camera and will address technical, aesthetic and expressive concepts as they relate to composition, space, exposure, light and color. Students will also learn tools and tricks available to photographers through Adobe’s Photoshop Elements, an entry-level photo editing software. Students will learn to adjust brightness and contrast elements, correct skin tone, adjust depth of field, cropping, color casting, black & white effects, adding text, creating collages, and a wide range of pop art, motion, reflection, background, meme and aging effects.
Tennis – FREE TRIAL All levels from 3 to 18 years old September 6th 2020
Reserve your place at franckallegre@gmail.com
Created in 2001, our tennis school aims to transmit our passion for tennis to children from 3 years old. A dynamic team, in perpetual training, listening to your needs and objectives.
Our school offers an annual cycle of tennis, dance and multisport lessons. A dynamic team, in perpetual training, listening to your needs and objectives.
In order to guarantee quality education and keep this family spirit that characterizes us, the groups will be formed according to the age and level of the child. Groups include a maximum of 4 children.
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.
Sylviane is to be the contact person between the students, the parents, the external specialists, and the school, in order to adapt the learning environment to the specific needs of our students.
We explain the necessary accommodations to the teachers, and in some cases, we put in place an IEP (Individualized Educational Plan) in order to provide optimal support for our students. The IEP helps us follow up on the student's progress during the school year and forms the basis for regular meetings with parents.
BIS as an inclusive school, is committed to support all students in their learning and do everything necessary to help them reach their full potential. The Learning Support Department helps teachers to implement learning strategies, differentiation and accommodations to meet the students’ needs.
