What started out as a small gathering of German families at a local play centre in 2008 has developed into a multi-member interactive parent cooperative. Today, we run a specifically designed German Literacy programme, using fit-for-purpose classrooms, and are teaching over 30 students every school term.
But we’re more than just a school...
It’s
a place for parents to meet and for children to make friends. There
is lots of interaction on the school playground before and after
classes, we have a ‘resident musician’ who entertains us, and
operate a small library of German children’s books. We organise
several events each year to bring us together as a community and to
celebrate cultural traditions, such as Ostern, Laternenfest, Advent
und Weihnachtszeit. Throughout the year there is ample opportunity to
get involved!

German School Wellington operates as an Incorporated Society. Its day-to-day business is managed by a committee of elected parents.
