SIS Swiss International School Schönenwerd
Curriculum: Teaching at SIS is based on the curriculum of the respective canton. This curriculum is supplemented by elements of international educational practice as well as by pedagogical standards developed by SIS.
The SIS Swiss International School Schönenwerd offers bilingual education in preschool and in primary school. On all levels, classes are held both in German and English. However, bilingualism is no prerequisite for admission. We offer additional courses in both languages for a defined period.
Our bilingual Preschool is a day school that offers a well-supervised, safe and stimulating learning environment for children aged three to six. SIS has developed its own curriculum for children in this age group. Our Preschool is the ideal preparation for the transition into the bilingual SIS Primary School.
At our bilingual Primary School, teaching is based on the curriculum of the respective canton. This state curriculum is supplemented by elements of international educational practice as well as by pedagogical standards developed by SIS. Students can transfer to our school from public school system at any time.
Sports and Extra-Curricular Activities
Sports
The premises of a former Bally factory have been tastefully renovated and equipped with modern infrastructure. In addition to the spacious classrooms, we also have a range of special-purpose rooms such as a well-stocked library and a gymnastics room, where already our preschool students can sharpen their skills.
For sports and swimming classes we use the sports hall and the indoor swimming pool of the public school located only a few minutes walk from the school. Our day-school structure means that our cafeteria is a key part of school life.
The large playground in the courtyard offers students the possibility to play football, basketball or table tennis, or just to engage in self-directed play.
