The out-of-school facility Gigagroen provides out-of-school care for the children of the Groen van Prinstererschool and is also located in this school. It is a small, cosy facility, where everyone knows each other.

There are four common rooms, a large games room and a studio. We can also be found in the gym and the green playground doing all kinds of activities.

What makes Gigagroen special?

  • No travel time from school to the out-of-school facility.
  • Community school: there is a close cooperation between Gigagroen and the Groen van Prinstererschool.
  • Natural garden with wooden beams, rope bridge and boulders, among other things, and plenty of space to play freely.
  • Varied programme in the creative sphere, drama/theatre and sports and games.
  • Free transportation to sports clubs.

Frequently asked questions

When can I register my child for out-of-school-care?

You can register your child for out-of-school school care from the moment your child is 3 years old and your (provisional) choice of school is known. Your choice of school is important because each school is linked to one of out-of-school care facilities. If your choice of school (or your preferred childcare days) changes, please let us know as soon as possible. The date you communicate the change will then become your new registration date.

When will I know if there is a place for my child?

As soon as we have a place for your child, we will let you know. For the after-school centre, we aim to inform you no later than six months before the requested childcare date. If you do not hear anything, this means that we do not (yet) have a place available.

Is it possible to switch days of out-of-school care?

Exchanging an out-of-school day is possible provided there is space available for an extra child in the group on the requested day and that the group is not already too full. In addition, sufficient employees must be available. The location will decide whether exchanging a day or extra childcare is possible.

Can my child get out-of-school care on an extra afternoon?

Exchanging or requesting extra days is a service we offer whenever possible. Your child can get out-of-school care on an extra afternoon if the group size and staffing permits.

You have to apply via the parent portal. This afternoon will be deducted from the number of discretionary days for holidays and teachers’ seminars and will not be invoiced. If you have no discretionary days left, this extra day will be charged. View our price list for the hourly rate charged for this.
