Elementary schools

The school should be a safe place for children where they can play, learn, grow, find friends, and be challenged. At all our schools, we strive to do our very best every day for the pupils to be able to take responsibility, expand their horizons, and be ready for their future life. 

All schools have their own childcare program before and after school hours (SFO) and each school engages the pupils in the surrounding nature, culture, history, and local business community during classes. We believe in life-long learning and have exciting line options for the oldest students. In addition, we place great emphasis on taking care of those who need extra support.

Our elementary schools are divided into seven school districts. In addition, we have Darum Børneby at St. Darum, a common children's universe where kindergarten, school, SFO, and the club have joined forces. Our 10th-grade students can enjoy being part of groups with other kids of the same age at our special Studie 10 in either Bramming or Esbjerg.

Preschool, SFO and kids’ clubs

Preschool is the transition from home or the kindergarten to elementary school. Each school has before and after school programs called SFO, so you child can be taken care of either in the mornings before the school starts and/or after the school is over.
