Münsing: Provisional rooms for lunchtime care provide relief!
A lot is currently happening in education policy in Münsing. There is a significant increase in births and with it questions about the enrollment of children from refugee accommodation at school. The primary school is faced with the challenge of having to open three first classes, which requires more space for lunchtime care. The need is great, because 101 of 170 students are currently attending lunchtime care, which has been organized by the Wolfratshausen Children's and Youth Support Association since 2016. This has prompted the municipality to create temporary premises in the former town hall to ease some of the pressure. According to a report by the South German newspaper 2,500 euros were invested in preparing the rooms, and the community received active support from the caretaker and employees of the waterworks, who put in a total of 35 hours of work.
The new rooms in the old town hall offer space for lunchtime care for the children, who eat there in a two-shift system and do their homework. Although the rooms in the primary school can still be used, it is of great importance for the community to quickly find sustainable solutions. To ensure safety during use, safety precautions have even been taken on the spiral staircase to the school building. Compared to other communities, Münsing has a high proportion of students in lunchtime care, which shows that there is a great need here.
A renovation is pending
For the future, the community is planning a comprehensive renovation of the town hall to not only create more space for school classes, but also for lunchtime care. The possibility of completing the procurement process for this construction work by the end of 2025 gives cause for hope. The actual start of construction should then be aimed for at the end of 2026. But it remains unclear where the children will go during the renovation work in 2027. A temporary solution could also be a crèche in the community hall, which according to current plans could open at the turn of the year 2028.
In addition, consideration is being given to introducing an open all-day school from the start of the 2028 school year in order to ensure all-day care from 2026. The challenges involved, such as ensuring holiday care for afternoon care, should not be underestimated. It will therefore remain exciting to see how the educational landscape in Münsing will develop in the coming years.
The education system in Germany is diverse and offers numerous opportunities for students, such as the information platform Education server clearly presented. And in Münsing, too, care is taken early on to ensure that the children receive the best possible care and education.
At the same time, educational institutions are increasingly partnering with local businesses to provide targeted support, which is becoming increasingly important. This shows that the defining element for positive development is not only the infrastructure, but also local cooperation.
