Four-Forest is a bilingual day school for children from 3-13 years of age.  The school offers an inviting and friendly environment with a family atmosphere, where your child's learning experience can be nurtured in small class sizes.

Four-Forest aims to challenge each child to develop and flourish within the classroom, providing an environment where children are happy, confident and well supported.

The school follows a unique curriculum, which has been carefully put together using the local Swiss curriculum of Canton Lucerne and elements from the British ‘National Curriculum’.  The children are taught equally in both English and German on a weekly basis (one week German, one week English).  All Grades are taught by two fully qualified and experienced mother-tongue teachers.  This curriculum begins in Pre-School with the 3-year old children and is followed by all children until 6th Grade, guaranteeing a high-quality bilingual education.

Through being exposed to both languages in a natural setting, the languages are acquired irrespective of the child’s mother-tongue.  Four-Forest, therefore, caters equally for children from both Swiss and International families.

School hours are from 8.30am - 3.15pm.  Four-Forest offers an ‘Early Bird’ club from 7.45am and various after-school activities until 6.00pm.

Institut Montana Zugerberg is a non-profit, swiss and international co-ed day- and boarding school. It was founded in 1926 and is comprised of an International Section as well as a Swiss Section.
The International Section’s purpose is to provide an education to prepare students for university entrance. It is a recognized IB World School and our students have entered universities in numerous countries including the UK, the USA, Canada, and Switzerland.
The Swiss Section prepares its students for entrance to Swiss universities. All Swiss universities have very high standards and are considered world class.

Since some students are beginners in English and in German, there are special courses tailored to their needs (English as a Foreign Language and German as a Foreign Language).

The class sizes range from six to fifteen students, and the teacher student rate is 1 to 6. All teachers of the International Section are fluent in English and most are native speakers.
We require that all teachers hold a Bachelor’s degree or its equivalent and many have earned a Master’s or a doctorate.
The Swiss Section teachers hold degrees from German and Swiss universities, and have the equivalent of either a Master’s or a doctorate and an educational degree. In both sections the average teacher has more than seven years teaching experience and stays in average eight years at Montana.

Currently 270 students are enrolled and our student body comes from all around the world. This diversity is best illustrated by the fact that all five continents are represented and our students come from more than 36 different countries.

Through our structured day school (Kindergarten to Grade 6), we provide an attractive, safe, caring and stimulating learning environment which allows pupils to become confident, independent learners in both German and English. Self-assertion, sharing, playing, meals with others: all these activities strengthen the child's own abilities and promote social integration.

A broad and balanced curriculum, delivered through learning by subjects and experimentation within themes, enables the students to develop academics and independent learning skills and to strengthen their use of language at their own pace. Using an amalgamation of internationally and nationally recognised curricula,

we provide the perfect foundations for students to successfully graduate to the bilingual College offered at SIS Swiss International School.

PRIMARY SCHOOL (SWEDISH-FRENCH)

The Swedish School of Geneva’s primary school welcome students from the year they turn 6 years old. We follow the Swedish National curriculum with instruction carried out in both Swedish and French. We adhere to the principle of “one teacher – one language” which means that each teacher speaks only his or her native tongue, which creates excellent opportunities for the students to develop both languages. We also offer an expanded instruction of English compared to the regular Swedish curriculum. The education is adapted to each individual student’s circumstances and needs.
Through the privilege of our small groups we can guarantee a personalised education where the student is always at the core. Our size also enables a close relationship between school and parents. On top of the daily contact that this allows for, we always schedule meetings twice a year between teacher, student and parents to discuss in detail the progress of the student and to set, together, the goals for further development.
The level of education is high and our experience from over 35 years of activity in Geneva shows that our students are well prepared to continue on to both local and international schools.
In addition to the regular curriculum we also offer after school activities to our primary school students.

For more detailed information about our education, please request the national curriculum Lpo94 as well as the Swedish School’s detailed work plan.

Welcome to the Swedish School in Geneva!

We also offer a Swedish-French or an English-French pre-school and we have an extensive offer of language courses, for both children and adults.

Terra Nova – opens worlds

Worlds …
… of languages. Communicate successfully.
… of natural sciences. Understand connections.
