"Video-game & Hang Out Club" This club is open to students in pre-school 4  to 12th grade and it will be led by Mr. Knutson. This club is designed to help families who have children doing multiple activities at BIS. In this club students will have a chance to play video-games on a BIG screen (wii, x-box, etc), play cards, do their homework (by themselves without teacher assistance), or simply hang out 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$25.
 
Capoeira -  This club is open to students in Kindergarten to 8th grade and it will be lead by Capoeira instructor, Aladin,  assisted by Coach Batista.  Capoeira is a Brazilian dance/ martial art developed by the African slaves who helped colonize 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 Brazilian cultural experience! This club will be offered all year long.
