OUT AND ABOUT IN BRUSSELS
PRIMARY EDUCATION
CHOOSE A DISTRICT IN BRUSSELS
Discover Brussels and hear the best stories about the city. We do this tailored to the children and make it an interactive walk, and this in different neighborhoods.
CENTER
In the center we walk from Jeanneke to Manneke, we walk along the other highlights such as the Grote Markt and the gallery. But we also descend to Zinneke Pis and the neighborhood around Sint-Goriks and Sint-Katelijne.
MAROLLES
Once the most popular neighbourhood of Brussels, now a district with many second-hand shops, the Vossenplein, nice alleys and many climbs. We start at one of the most beautiful viewpoints of Brussels and take you through the vibrant Marollen district.
OR GO FOR STREET ART
Here the walk revolves around... Street Art. Very nice to do, also with younger classes. A very visual walk, where we still visit the well-known places but do not look at them from a historical point of view.
CENTER
We follow more or less the same route as the neighborhood walk but tell more about the Street Art that we encounter along the way. Both large murals and small unexpected works make it a very nice walk.
MAROLLES
More and more Street Art is popping up here and brightening up the streets. A district where something new appears every month and that is vibrant like no other.
PREFER SOMETHING ACTIVE?
SUSTAINABLE CITY GAME
Sustainability has become an indispensable part of the lessons, but it is less obvious to make it manageable.
During our 2-hour city game we delve into this theme and take the students along in an interactive way.
And along the way they also get to know the city.
SECONDARY EDUCATION
CHOOSE A DISTRICT IN BRUSSELS
THE CLASSICS
If Brussels is still unknown, choose one of the "classic" neighborhoods. The center with the streets around the Grand Place, the lively Marollen neighborhood or the contrast between high and low or Zavel & Marollen .
AROUND THE CANAL
Close to the center, but still a completely different face. Here are a number of neighborhoods that are often depicted less positively but that we are very enthusiastic about. Look at it in a different way and challenge the students a bit!
In the canal zone we combine the neighbourhood around Sint-Katelijne and the Vismarkt with a bit of Molenbeek. Or explore a bit more in Laag-Molenbeek . This is our most diverse walk.
OR CHOOSE A THEME
STREET BAZ'ART
Here the walk is all about... Street Art. A very visual walk, where we still visit the well-known places but do not look at them from a historical point of view. We start a conversation and make it an interactive walk.
ECOBAZAAR
Sustainability, circular entrepreneurship, sharing economy, slow fashion,... are just a few key words from this walk. We tackle it very concretely, visually and accessible and want to inspire and give concrete examples of what is happening in Brussels.
GRL PWR
A walk around entrepreneurship where women call the shots. We visit various initiatives and tell their stories. Can also be combined with the Ecobazaar.
