We also have a full-scale sports hall, an extended-hours library, and a school restaurant serving nutritious and tasty meals daily.
Work teams are divided into grades F–3, grades 4–6, and after-school care F–6.

Teams are adapted to needs to create the best possible teaching situations and optimize resource usage.
We invest in accessible and inspiring learning environments with excellent access to digital tools.
