Dear all,

May is here in a few days - and with it traditional Danish spring weather!

Keep and eye out for the weather forecast and enjoy the below treats (many inside, so you can disregard the weather ;))

Kind Regards Louise

Curious about the Danish daycare system?

On May 10th at 18.15-19.45 (6.15-7.45pm) the daycare department from Vejle Municipality will provide you with an overview of the Danish daycare system (Children in the age range from 10 months to 5 years).

We will go through how it is set up, why things are done in a certain way and you can ask any questions you might have about the daycare system in Vejle.

Participation is free of charge - but you have to sign up.

If you would like to spend the evening at Spinderhallerne it is also possible to join Tuesday Food before the daycare info meeting - buy your ticket(s) here.

The purpose of participating in mother-tongue education is to maintain and develop the children’s familiarity with their mother-tongue and to learn more about their home country. The children have the opportunity to understand their background and to master the language.

Mother-tongue education is offered to pupils in grades 0-9. The education is voluntarily and it is free of charge for children living in Vejle Municipality to participate. If you live outside Vejle Municipality, please refer to the municipality you live in.

Deadline to sign up for the school year 2022/23 is May 31st.
