Floating daycare centre made of wood: unique architecture in a green setting
The plans for the architecture are particularly exciting: the daycare centre is to consist of several single-storey buildings in timber construction, with trees integrated into the building structure as a supporting structure. This innovative timber construction creates the illusion of a "floating" daycare centre that offers the children a unique space to experience nature up close. The daycare centre is being planned by the Kaarst-based firm [Caspar Indenhuck Architektur].
Search for sponsor for new daycare centre
The city is looking for an experienced provider for the planned centre. One prerequisite is that the provider can implement early childhood education concepts and is prepared to start with two groups in the 2025/2026 kindergarten year. The application deadline is 31 October 2024.
Start of daycare centre operations planned for 2025/2026
The new daycare centre is due to open on time for the start of the 2025/2026 kindergarten year. The administration is confident that the deadline for finding a sponsor will be sufficient and hopes that this exciting project will be realised quickly.
Advantages of the new daycare centre in Rottfeld:
- Concept close to nature by integrating trees into the architecture.
- Innovative timber construction for sustainable and environmentally friendly construction.
- Wide range of educational programmes for children from 0 to 3 years.
- Flexibility by providing support even in the event of absences due to illness.
The CDU supports the project, while other challenges such as staffing requirements were discussed.
