Bilingual Early Years
Our spaces and approach were designed especially for children from 6 months to 6 years old, supporting the cognitive, motor and social-emotional development best suited to each stage.
The daily routine is enriched with a variety of workshops throughout the week, such as art, music, movement, circus, capoeira and cooking.
Early childhood is the time and place for discovery and for intense connections with the world. Our school nurtures social-emotional skills, and this stage of life is precisely when they are most easily developed and absorbed. Building on them, children grow more fully and gain a solid foundation for the formal learning that begins in elementary school.
Our approach seeks to understand each child's needs and what motivates them, and from there the logic of their development. At this stage, projects and play are the path to learning.
We offer an innovative program with a solid, constantly evolving curriculum. A fresh perspective on education.
We are organized as small communities, keeping close relationships with every family and every child.
How It Works
Hiboo offers a gradual start, so that little ones can settle happily into the new world of school. The settling-in process is built case by case, together with parents. This approach brings the child and family close to the ideal first school experience, respecting each child's pace and development.

Classes don't have a fixed room: they share the space and move through different areas as activities unfold, widening the possibilities for exploring spaces and building relationships. A learning space should inspire and spark creativity, so Hiboo designed large, airy rooms that welcome natural light and promote well-being.
Hiboo offers many mixed-age activities that mirror real-life relationships and communication, so children learn from one another and develop a sense of community, responsibility and kindness, among other abilities.
We follow a Brazilian curriculum that also develops English. As a bilingual school, we don't just teach English, we teach through it. Full development of the mother tongue (expanding vocabulary, understanding its structures, and engaging with popular culture, songs and games) is also essential for building positive local bonds and is an important part of the program.
