A three-group day care centre for children with a total of 62 slots is being built in Wasserburg am Inn.
The day care centre is part of the "Burgstall Meeting Centre", which will also house a Seventh-day Adventist Church community centre, a music school, a co-working space, and a bistro. The Adventist Welfare Organization (Advent-Wohlfahrtswerk e.V., AWW) is responsible for the day care centre. One crèche, one kindergarten, and one integration group are planned. The building shell is about to be completed and the topping out ceremony will take place on March 16. The interior work is already in full swing.
The equipment, furniture and playground equipment for the indoor and outdoor areas are also being discussed, compared and planned for. The AWW team continues to work on the pedagogical concept of the new children's house. "Sustainability" is to be a central theme. For example, lunch will be cooked fresh daily in the specially designed kitchen with regional organic products, according Lothar Scheel, head of public relations at AWW.
A special feature is the planned cooperation with the neighbouring organic farmer family Kühn. Hermann Kühn, himself a curative education nurse, is looking forward to working with the new day care centre and introducing the children to everyday life on the farm. Completion of the house is planned for the end of 2023.
