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.

In July 2001, the American International School of Zürich (established in 1963) and the International Primary School of Zurich (established in 1969) formally merged to create the Zürich International School (ZIS), the only independent day school in Zürich offering a fully accredited, comprehensive education program spanning Pre-School (age 3) through Grade 12. ZIS offers a rich and varied curriculum which encompasses the Primary Years Program (PYP) and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program as well as a standard college-preparatory course of studies with a strong Advanced Placement (AP) emphasis, thus ensuring that ZIS graduates may pursue higher education virtually anywhere in the world. ZIS is located at four separate campuses outside Zürich: the Early Childhood Center at the Seestrasse Villa in Kilchberg; the new, state-of-the-art Lower School in Wadenswil; the Middle School in Horgen; and the Upper School Villa on Nidelbadstrasse, Kilchberg.

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.

As the Center grew, the need for activities in Swiss German became apparent and then available, which provided the basis for bilingual education for children from 2 to 7 years old.
For children, we offer such classes as:

  • Parent & Child Playgroups
  • Nursery & (Intro to) Nursery

Do you want your child to attend a school with small groups and competent staff in a stimulating environment? Then the Swedish School is the right choice! At the Swedish School the student is at the core and our children take pleasure in lifelong learning. Starting from the individual’s background, language and knowledge we support the student’s continuous learning and knowledge development.

At our trilingual school, instruction is given in French, Swedish and English. The high level of education, combined with a safe and creative environment, makes students from the Swedish School well-equipped for continued education in both local and international schools.

In our pre-school we welcome children between 1 and 5. We offer a Swedish-French or an English-French education. We provide a safe and creative environment for the children to develop their multilingualism. We focus on learning for life and to make learning a pleasure. We unite care and instruction in an all-day programme where we stimulate linguistic and mathematical progress as well as social skills development. Through free play as well as organized activities our children develop languages and social competence, hand in hand. We capture their natural curiosity of the world around them and develop their instinctive creativity. All learning is built on the child’s own capacities and enthusiasm, and we are always working with the child at the core.

Cooperation and teamwork is a natural part of our day and one of our strengths is that everyone knows everyone and the children feel very safe in the fact that they are never anonymous. Our pre-school is fun, safe and full of learning for all children.

The pre-school is open Monday-Friday 08.00-18.30, all year long.

Welcome to the Swedish School in Geneva!

We also offer a Swedish/French Primary school and we have an extensive offer of language courses, for both children and adults.

In July 2001, the American International School of Zürich (established in 1963) and the International Primary School of Zurich (established in 1969) formally merged to create the Zürich International School (ZIS), the only independent day school in Zürich offering a fully accredited, comprehensive education program spanning Pre-School (age 3) through Grade 12. ZIS offers a rich and varied curriculum which encompasses the Primary Years Program (PYP) and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program as well as a standard college-preparatory course of studies with a strong Advanced Placement (AP) emphasis, thus ensuring that ZIS graduates may pursue higher education virtually anywhere in the world. ZIS is located at four separate campuses outside Zürich: the Early Childhood Center at the Seestrasse Villa in Kilchberg; the new, state-of-the-art Lower School in Wadenswil; the Middle School in Horgen; and the Upper School Villa on Nidelbadstrasse, Kilchberg.
