There is a kitchen as well as faculty rooms. There is a large backyard with playgrund equipment.

The kindergarten started as a parent initiative for bilingual children. Parents, along with a government orginization, have built up the kindergarten according to the needs set by the parents for their bilingual children. Parent-teacher meetings are regular, as well as parent meetings.

What advice would you give to someone considering enrolling their child in this school?

I would advise someone considering enrolling to do it early. Non-German speaking children are supposed to have priority. No German is required.
