Late Birds at JFKS

Bildungsdienste gGmbH, an external care provider (accredited by the Berlin Jugendhilfe). Our staff will welcome your child after school in our three newly renovated rooms at the Elementary School Building. They will accompany your children to the Aula for a hot lunch or in our rooms for snacks. The children may choose among a variety of activities and will have plenty of time to play, relax or spend time with their friends. Children taking the school bus at 3 or 4 pm will be accompanied to the bus by Late Birds staff members. We will also make sure that your children arrive on time at their extra-curricular activities held at school. JFKS has excellent outdoor facilities and late birds is happy to utilize these resources letting the children spend as much time outside as possible. We play soccer, table tennis, basketball, and many other fun and creative activities outside. Inside we have a variety of board games, a huge collection of Lego and Kapla bricks, costumes for acting and sketches, and other activities to engage the children. There are also books to read and we offer the children in our arts and crafts room numerous possibilities for creative drawing , painting, and handicrafts. The children should feel at home at Late Birds where they should enjoy their free time in the school. To this end, we offer care in small groups and a warm and friendly environment. Our childcare team has experience with children of different cultures and age groups. Late Birds takes place daily from Monday to Friday between 1:00 p.m. on school days. We offer a maximum of flexibility – you are free to choose between one and five days a week during which you would like your child to spend the afternoon with us. Of course we can also accommodate your children on short notice. The fees to be paid are calculated according to the number of days or hours you book with us. We are also available to look after your children on school days with early dismissal, Parent-Teacher conference days, and American holidays, as well as certain weeks during vacations. For these weeks we plan to organize a special holiday program.
