Homely looking after-school care
If you walk up the stairway – complete with chandelier and stained-glass windows – you’ll enter the attic of this former school building. Right below the sloping roof, is where you find our homely looking after-school care. We had skylights installed to create a playful area with lots of light, where children tend to feel instantly at home.Plan activities together
Did you know our children even have their own Children Committee? They get to state their preferences for certain activities, which are grouped into the categories Games and Play, Creative, Cooking, and Technology. Whenever we get a chance, we make an activity plan together or come up with ideas for one of our special themed weeks. For example, during the school vacation we worked on a project called “The Perfect Picture,” involving the use of images, photographs, and artworks. The children also decorated picture frames and even held an exhibit for their parents and each other. Of course, we also give children the space they need to play around, or relax in a quiet corner with a book.Playing outdoors? Yes please!
We encourage our children to play outdoors any chance we get: we take them to the local park, go for picnics, play soccer, climb in trees, and organize other sports and games. During school vacations, we might visit a museum or do something a little more adventurous – like building rafts.You’ll find us just outside Delft’s downtown area, so you can easily stop off on the way to work or the railway station.

Active outdoor playPlaying outside is not only healthy. Children learn and play differently outside than they do indoors. That's why we are often found outside, always under supervision, of course!
-
Creative studioHere, children can truly let their imagination and creativity run free. We challenge them by offering a variety of materials (wood, stone, clay, paint, and for example, ecoline). So, it's not just about crafting and drawing, but also designing, shaping, building, and handicrafts.
-
Quiet reading cornerA place to unwind. Take a moment for yourself by quietly reading a book or magazine. The selection is vast: from picture books to reading books. Many children curl up on the couch in the afternoon to read a Donald Duck.
-
Discovery labIn our laboratory, children can research, experiment, and discover! Through experiments, children get to know biology, physics, chemistry, and technology in a playful way.
