At Maple Bear Kindergarten Sofia, we provide a bilingual (Bulgarian and Canadian) comprehensive preschool education program for children aged 2 to 7 years. Our Canadian methodology supports each stage of a child’s development, fostering academic, social, emotional, and physical growth in a nurturing environment.
By the time our students graduate, they are confident, independent, and well-prepared to continue their educational journey at Maple Bear Primary and High School, as well as at Bulgarian or international schools worldwide.
We welcome students in the following groups
Our Toddler program provides a safe, caring, and stimulating environment where young children begin to explore the world around them. Through play, movement, music, and sensory experiences, children develop early language, social, and motor skills while building confidence and independence.
