Holiday childcare

Play, Fun and Adventure for Children of University Staff and Doctoral Students

The University offers childcare during all public holidays, except for the Christmas holidays. The offer is primarily directed at schoolchildren between 6 and 12 years. Additionally, during the summer holidays, childcare is arranged for kindergarten children between 3 and 6 years. 

Each year, the holiday childcare programme for the 6 to 12-year-olds is organized with a particular theme in mind. For example, the children rehearse a circus performance or a theatrical play, shoot a film, solve a detective story, re-live old handicraft trades, build soapboxes racing cars, organize an art exhibition and much more.

The holiday childcare programme for kindergarten children (3-6 years) usually takes place in one of the child care centers of the university. The children play, do handicrafts and go for age-appropriate walks and excursions, e.g. to nearby playgrounds.

If you are interested in the holiday childcare programme, please contact the Family Service for more information.
