The BCT has several interest groups, providing entertainment, exchange of information and social contact to their members. Shared interests range from sports, culture, lifestyle, hobbies, and language. Some groups are very large, with dozens of members, while others have only a handful of participants.
All groups meet on a regular basis and are always happy to welcome new members.
Our interest groups are initiated and organised by members for members. The group organisers keep in contact with members via email or Facebook, alerting them to upcoming group meetings, and providing them with information on BCT events and services. To join one of our Interest groups, please contact the group organiser (find contact details in the BCT app on Twizzit).
If you are not yet a member but would like to know more about one of these groups, or if you are a member and would like to set up a new interest group, please contact our Groups Coordinator at groups@bctbelgium.org.
Our Interest Groups:

WORKING MUMS
This group is an opportunity for working mums to get together over lunch/coffee/dinner or also at weekends with families, to share experiences of being a working mum in Brussels and to get to know others in the same situation.

Family Cycling Group
Join the BCT family cycling group on their outings for a few loops around, a coffee for adults and a bit of playtime in the park for our children.

Polish Language Group
One day, two polish mums met for a coffee and an idea of creating a polish-speaking playgroup was created. Fast forward a few months of lockdown and pandemic, they are ready to welcome you. Whether you are a polish parent or married to one, or simply want to enjoy the language, come and see us during our monthly playdates at the Clubhouse.

CROATIAN Playdate
This group - open to all members - will see parents and children aged 0-4 come together once per month for a jovial get-together.

Chinese Speaking Group

Scandinavian Language Group
We are happy to invite you to our Swedish-speaking playdate at the Clubhouse.
The aim is for our kids to be more exposed to the Swedish language and culture while the parents also enjoy a good chat. Parents and kids of all ages are very welcome!
Other Scandinavian languages are also welcome to join!

German Language Group
Meet-up of families with babies and children who want to practise speaking German. We sing songs, dance, chat and do seasonal crafts. Most meetings will be in the BCT Clubhouse, once a month at weekends, and some meetings will be outdoors, visiting farms, playgrounds or other locations together. The group is open to German, Austrian and Swiss expat families, and families for which German is only the third or fourth language, as well as all families that fall somewhere in between or just have an interest in the German language.

This group gives an opportunity for families raising their children with Irish to meet up and for kids who have Irish at home to use their mother tongue outside of the home.
