A word from Parent:
"Though the kindergarten is big, the atmosphere here is like a family. What I also appreciated very much is that our kids are encouraged to explore. The monthly topics give our children the perfect avenue to get information, conversations, experiments, creative and theme relevant field trips.”
Ute Türk (Germany), Niklas, 5 and Louisa, 3
