Pedagogical Concept
The focus of our pedagogical concept is bilingual and intercultural education in a warm environment with highly qualified professionals. Diversity and sustainability are at the center of our concept. In fact, we are in the process of transforming the child care center into a zero-waste facility with anti-discriminatory practices.
