Our son has attended Wichtel Akademie in his last year before school. As we moved to Germany recently, he needed to get used to a new country, new place and language. Wichtel Akademie in Forstenried appeared to be a great place for integrating and also preparing to school.
All staff members are friendly and helpful, and provide feedback on a child progress. Regular "classes" in English give a chance to keep up or to learn the language. There are lots of activities on daily basis, which are described then on a board for parents - singing, reading, hand-crafting. The Wichtel team regularly organizes special events for children and parents - like, x-mas or summer parties, or day trips - animal park and airport were great ideas! There is a defined plan for meals - for several weeks ahead, and children are taught to help with serving food and cleaning afterwards.
One special acknowledgement to other parents in the KiGa for keeping the friendly environment and making all meetings a fun to join! read more
