About this Kindergarten
The Kindergarten der Wiener Kinderfreunde is located at Grinzinger Allee 26 in the 19th district of Vienna. It accommodates three family groups, where children can grow up in a creative and stimulating environment. The educational focus is on STEM, meaning that children are introduced to mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, and technology through various materials and activities.

Regular intergenerational meetings with a nearby retirement home promote exchange between young and old, fostering empathy and understanding. Educational documentation is carried out through portfolios, and a transition portfolio is created in the final kindergarten year.
