English speaking kids' groups and activities

Do you know where you will be living and where the kids will go to school? There are plenty of clubs, groups, girl guides etc but it would be useful to know where you will be based.

OK so it sounds as if you will be Commission based and kids at the European school. That is a good start as parent networking through school is important. Parents are usually expats so like you have no local family support.

The Brussels Childbirth Trust https://bctbelgium.org/. is another perfect networking situation for parents. Unlike the NCT it spreads much further than pregnant mums and newborns. You will be welcome.

Aspria La Rasante sports club in Woluwe-Saint-Pierre has a lot of kids activities and has a multi national membership. The current manager is British.

There are also girlguide groups - see https://www.thebulletin.be/scouting-out-brussels-guide-english-speaking-...

Finally check this page https://www.angloinfo.com/brussels/directory/brussels-clubs-associations... which includes the Canadian Club

Not everyone whose job is in the EU quarter works for the EU!

Shortof, thank you for a spectacularly useless comment. I only said it sounds like it given working in EU district and living near the European school. I also said Commission based, not working for the EU. Could be something to do with CETA, could be something totally different. My answers are still all relevant.

There are English speaking scouts groups for children 6 and over. The Brussels Childbirth Trust have activities in English for children of all ages. They have a Facebook group which has a file containing a long list of activities in English.
