Holistic school education with many added values

We offer a combined 5th and 6th grade primary class, as well as three classes at the secondary level. As a cantonal-recognized private day school, we offer exceptional added value through comprehensive all-day care. This ensures consistent support for students throughout the day and offers parents the reassurance that their child is well cared for, five days a week.

The day school - structured and varied

Our day school model fosters a vibrant sense of community. Spending their days together helps pupils form strong bonds and nurtures a distinctive sense of team spirit—what we proudly call the Kollegi Spirit. Students benefit from a clear and balanced daily rhythm that combines traditional academic instruction with innovative approaches, such as our Focus learning lessons, which fosters personalized and self-directed learning.

Of course, students also enjoy nutritious, well-balanced meals during breaks and lunchtime.

Outside the classroom, we actively support and encourage students to shape their free time in meaningful personalized ways. A wide range of sports and leisure facilities are available in and around the school campus. Shared excursions and seasonal school events further strengthen community, enhances holistic education and offers joyful experiences.

Planning security for parents

As a parent, you can count on your child being well cared for throughout the school day—five days a week. Our clearly structured full day schedule permits families to structure their work and home responsibilities with certainty and ease, and you can rest assured that most written assignments will be completed at school before the day ends.

In our combined 5th and 6th grade primary class, pupils are thoroughly prepared for the transition to secondary level in accordance with cantonal guidelines. For those demonstrating the appropriate performance, a direct transfer to a long-term upper seconday school (Langzeit-Gymnasium, 6 years) is also possible.

Upon successful completion of secondary education, our students are well equipped to begin vocational training or to continue their academic journey at a higher secondary school. For some, the path to a short-term upper secondary school (Kurzzeit-Gymnasium, 4 years) proves to be the right choice—and we offer targeted preparation for that route as well.
