preparatory (zero) class is a well-thought-out entry into school life. It helps children smoothly and confidently transition from kindergarten to primary school. In a safe and stimulating environment, they gradually build their first academic skills, make new friends and gain confidence and emotional security for the 1st grade.
The preparatory class combines the curiosity and playfulness of kindergarten with the delicate structure of the school day. Children are accompanied by a familiar rhythm - the morning circle, educational centers, outdoor activities and space for creative discovery. Naturally and without pressure, they develop school readiness not only academically, but also socially and emotionally.

"We chose Maple Bear Brno for its high-quality bilingual education that seamlessly integrates Czech and English. Our children used to attend an English-speaking kindergarten, so it was important for us to be able to continue to develop in both languages. We were really impressed by Maple Bear Zero not only with its preparation for the school environment, but also with its approach, which actively supports the holistic development of our children."
"We like Maple Bear Brno's approach to education, which develops children in every way and prepares them for the future. It was also important for us that this is not a purely international school, but a combination of Canadian and Czech schools, and the teaching is half and half in Czech and English. Our family is not bilingual, so we were worried that English would be an obstacle. However, our fears were misplaced, because our son fit into the program without any problems and after 2 months he understood the basic instructions."
"We are very happy that our son is going to Maple Bear Brno. He feels safe enough to open up. He learns a lot in the lessons. He has friends and generally good relationships with his classmates. We especially like all the extracurricular activities that the school organizes for children. For us, the most important fact is that in the morning our son is still happy to go to school. ”
"We would recommend Maple Bear Brno to other families. We have already suggested it to several families who have since decided to enroll their children. We would like to continue to recommend it because we believe it provides a solid foundation for the future of children and offers them something unique that traditional schools often lack. ”
At Maple Bear Brno, we offer more than just education. We create a space where students feel safe, unique and truly seen. Our bilingual approach and caring environment help them develop confidence, curiosity and joy.
