De Klimop currently has two sites at different addresses in Sint-Gillis-Waas. In this project, we are bringing both together on one new site on the Blokstraat, where we are building a new primary school for a minimum of 250 pupils.  

Besides new pedagogical accents, we are emphasising architectural quality, sustainability, functionality and environmental friendliness. The buildings must be safe, comfortable, low-maintenance, easily accessible and facilitate the school’s pedagogical project.   

The project also includes some flexible and polyvalent spaces. These will be made available for multifunctional use, outside school hours for after-school care, crèche and local associations. In this way, the school is a public building that is part of the local community. As a community school, we enter into partnerships to create a broad learning and living environment both in leisure time and at school. In this way, we increase the development opportunities of every child, including those from underprivileged families.
