📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
he kindergarden Rosentalzwerge is centrally located in an old Villa in an historic District of Leipzig.
We have a total of 141 children in care. The families come from many different countries and now have their center of life in Leipzig.
We have almost 30 employees: educators, trainees, housekeeping staff, interns and volunteers.
Not far away is the Rosental, an extensive forest and park area. There we spend a lot of time with the children to discover nature, run around, climb and romb and play. Behind our house is a small garden with a sandpit, a tree house and a mud path. This is a nice refreshment for the children, especially in summer. Nature plays a major role in our concept. Our children spend most of the days in the Rosental-Park and use it as a play, exercise and educational space. They have everything with them on a handcart that is useful for playing outside. In the garden we have bushes and trees with sweet fruits and we grow vegetables ourselves.
