 Students
The Teddy Bear Club Preschool and Kindergarten has an international flavor not only because of its French atmosphere and culture, but also thanks to the diversity of students who attend the program. Over one hundred and fifty students constitute the Teddy Bear Club’s student body. While at least seventy percent of our students are American, many families come from various parts of the world such as: Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru and Russia. Many children come to us barely speaking their mother tongue, while others are bilingual, or even trilingual! Despite the variety of cultures, backgrounds and languages, the children all have the same common love of learning and playing. Geographically, about two-thirds of the students live in Newton and neighboring cities such as Boston, Brookline, Needham, Wellesley and Weston. The other one-third come from further away including towns such as Concord, Dover, Holliston, Milton, Natick and Sherborn.
 Parent Comments
“Our daughter has attended The Teddy Bear Club for a year and it has been wonderful. Her development is remarkable and much of it is due to Laura d'Angosse Perlman and her teachers. The bilingual teaching, the exposure to different cultures, the coherent and well-thought through curriculum have made a world of difference in our daughter, and we are so thankful.”

“I was extremely impressed with the ability of the teachers, the organization of the activities and the cooperation of the children. The recognition of other languages is a highlight in my grandson’s education. In a global world it is so important to know that other cultures exist. You provide an exceptional opportunity for the children at The Teddy Bear Club. Your staff is loving and smart and “hands on”. Your gift of a teddy bear to hug is a marvelous gesture. Thank you so much.”
