📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
The day care centre "Kindergärtnerei" is a new building which will open its doors for children and their families on 01.02.2021 under our management. The day care centre is located in the Grünau district of Leipzig in the middle of a quiet residential area and surrounded by apartment buildings, new buildings and shopping facilities.
The day care centre is open for children from one year old until they start school.
A total of 155 children are cared for in the day care centre (12 are integration places).
In order to live up to the name of our day care centre, high beds have been laid out in many parts of the garden, where the children can grow vegetables, fruit and flowers together with the educational staff, which they can also harvest themselves during the year. The garden offers the children the opportunity to experience the seasons with all their changes throughout the year. The rich tree population offers protection from sun and rain.
