"Hang Out Club" -  This club is open to students in Preschool  to 12^th grade and it will be led by Mr. Knutson along with parents who volunteer. This club is designed to help families who have children doing multiple activities at BIS. In this club students will have a chance to do their homework (by themselves without teacher assistance), or simply hang out in the computer lab, use the internet, play cards, etc… while their siblings are doing a different club. This way all children can go home at the same time in one vehicle. Students in this club are encouraged to bring a snack in case they get hungry. This club is available to BIS students only.  Cost R$10.

 

Capoeira Club -  This club is open to students in Kindergarten to 12^th grade and it will be lead by Capoeira instructor, Aladin,  assisted by Ms. Raquel.  Capoeira is a Brazilian dance/ martial art developed by the African slaves who helped colonized Brazil in the 1500's. Students will learn the fundamental steps (jinga) of capoeira, along with different songs and moves that make up the capoeira experience. This will be an amazing club and a great cultural Brazilian experience!

This club will be offered all year long. Students currently enrolled in capoeira do not need to enroll again. Cost R$75

 

Homework club: This club is open to students in 3^rd to 12^th grade and it will be lead by Mr. Knutson.  Students will be given the opportunity to work on their assignments and homework after school in the computer lab. The teacher will assist students with any questions they may have on their projects and homework. This club is available to BIS students only. Cost R$75.

 

Soccer club ends, but soccer team begins (during school hours) – Soccer team is open to students in 3^rd to 6^th  grade and it will be lead by Coach Batista. Due to extenuating circumstances our soccer coach, Leandro, will no longer be able to teach our soccer club. This means we will no longer have afterschool practices on Tuesdays and Thursday (in November and December). However we will now offer soccer practices for 3^rd to 6^th graders during their second recess (1:35pm to 1:55pm, Monday – Friday). These students will represent our school as we play against different schools and clubs in Brasilia. Cost R$10 or free for those students that have already participated in soccer club this year.

Santa's workshop – This club is open to students in 5^th to 12^th grade and it will be lead by Mrs. Knutson and Mrs. Renard. In this club students will learn how to make and decorate different Christmas gifts. This is a great opportunity to get ahead and start making some special gifts for family and friends as the Christmas season approaches. Should be great fun! Cost R$75.

 

Archery Club -  This club is open to students in 5^th to 12^th grade and it will be lead by Coach Batista.   Students will learn the safety rules of the shooting range and the fundamental steps of archery. Students will practice shooting arrows from 10 meters and 15 meters. This archery team will compete against other schools in the U.S. (virtual matches). This will be an exciting and fun club. The school will provide the bows and arrows, but students are welcome to bring their own equipment if desired. This club will have a maximum of 12 students. Cost R$75
