English Eagles Adliswil

About English Eagles
Our philosophy
At English Eagles, we always put the children’s needs first. We view each child as an individual with a unique personality. This means that we act according to the situation and each child’s needs. Each child is not alone and therefore forms an important part of the group.

In specific situations, we respond to meet the needs of each child, while we view the group as a whole. We believe that each individual has five dimensions: intellectual, emotional, physical, social and spiritual. For that reason, we try to foster all these dimensions in the activities that we offer at English Eagles.

Some of these are easily recognisable, while others are simply integrated into our general approach to running the centre. Our aim
We aim to create a caring environment for the children to learn English in. We offer not only bilingual part-time childcare for children between kindergarten age and the sixth year of school but also an English-language playgroup for children aged two to five.

With the exception of cantonal public holidays, we are open from Monday to Friday for around 50 weeks of the year. We offer all-day childcare during the school holidays.…Owner | Management
