Imagine a school located in the middle of nature, in the middle of the mountains, where all teachers are qualified and have plenty of time for each child. Imagine a learning environment where there is time for each child to develop based on the child’s individual level and needs.
Also imagine a school environment with modern premises where there is a music room, a crafts workshop, a sports hall and a swimming pool. There is also an island where the children can swim or barbecue at the wind shelter in the summer or go cross-country skiing in the winter.
Now imagine a preschool and after-school club where your child can be involved in deciding what to do. Where your child gets the possibility to swim in mountain lakes, go mountain climbing, go downhill skiing, build igloos, manufacture and fly kites, swim in the swimming pool, go ice skating or whatever it may be that interests your child. This is an educational environment where the teachers can develop a personal relationship with each child and help the children develop their interests.
Do you now have a picture in front of you? What you now imagine is Ljungdalen’s school, after-school club and preschool.
