Located near the Gheorgheni Sports Complex, Maple Bear Cluj’s nursery, kindergarten and primary school opened their doors in 2024, offering a complete educational journey in a modern, safe and stimulating environment.
We combine the Romanian national curriculum with the Maple Bear Canadian methodology, tailoring learning to each child’s age and individual needs. Through hands-on activities and interactive experiences, children develop curiosity, creativity, independence, critical thinking and confidence in their own abilities.
Our bilingual approach integrates Romanian and English into the educational experience, while our teaching staff benefit from specialised training in the Maple Bear methodology and ongoing professional development.
We place a strong emphasis on academic, social and emotional development, encouraging every child to collaborate, explore and reach their full potential. Our mission is to nurture a love of learning and provide children with a solid foundation for personal growth and future success.

Maple Bear’s curriculum, inspired by Canada’s renowned educational practices, takes a whole-child approach, blending academic rigor with creativity, self-expression, and critical thinking. Our bilingual programs integrate Language Arts, math, science, and social studies, nurturing cognitive, emotional, and social growth while fostering a lifelong love of learning.
The Maple Bear curriculum is created in Canada by Canadian experts, the Maple Bear Faculty – a distinguished team of 150+ expert Canadian educators. Responsible for writing the curriculum, faculty members continually update the material to reflect the latest in research and Canadian educational practices.
At Maple Bear, we prepare students for the future by nurturing essential soft skills. Through our innovative Canadian education model, these skills are seamlessly integrated into daily learning, empowering students with the confidence and emotional intelligence to thrive in a rapidly evolving world. This dedication to holistic, future-ready education is at the heart of our mission.
Bilingual education is the use of two different languages in the classroom instruction of academic content. At Maple Bear, students study all academic subjects in either their native language or a second language, depending on the subject and grade level. Research shows that immersion is the best method of learning an additional language.
Maple Bear schools benefit from our distinguished academic faculty of Canadian trainers, curriculum writers and quality assurance personnel. Each school undergoes annual inspections to ensure safety, academic excellence, and quality facilities. Our goal is to establish schools that provide a secure, enriching learning environment designed to prepare students for a bright future.
The Romanian national curriculum is implemented in accordance with the standards and regulations set by the Ministry of Education, ensuring a solid academic foundation and a clear progression of competencies for each grade level. At Maple Bear Cluj – Sayora Elementary School, we fully follow the national curriculum, and all classes are taught by qualified teachers with extensive experience in the Romanian educational system. The curriculum is periodically updated at the national level to meet modern learning requirements and to ensure continuity throughout the child's academic development.
The Maple Bear mission is to deliver a student-focussed learning system in a safe, secure and stimulating environment that prepares students for success at the post secondary level and that instills a passion for life-long learning.
