Room for Growth – Nuziders

“They’re such great, bright rooms with lots of wood.” “The playground is great.” “It’s like a five-star hotel – only without the beds.” Martina, Elia, Sophie and their friends have inaugurated the Nüziders educational complex to the point that they are absolutely excited about their new school. It took three years to build, but the development process had begun much earlier: the programs and usage concepts of the room were defined, in addition to kindergarten and primary school, the school and public library as well as lunch and Day care is integrated. A large climbing hall, the new rehearsal room for the Sonnenberger Harmonimusic and the campus for the Walgau Music School are also part of the campus and fill it with life. “We wanted to create a space where children could develop as much as possible. It was a huge project for us, but the result is impressive,” Mayor Peter Near says with satisfaction.

The Nuziders education complex is also exemplary in terms of energy efficiency, mobility and the use of sustainable building materials: “We just got the result of the assessment last week and scored 952 out of a possible 1000 points. We are here to be an absolute elite in the field of public buildings Play in,” said Neuer. A total of 20 million euros have been invested, but one is now ready for the educational and demographic demands of the years to come. After a colorful opening event, through which Martina AS led And which was shaped by several Nuziger children, and a festive march with harmony music on the academic campus from the Sonnenbergsaal, Pastor Karl Bleibersnig received the solemn blessing. He noted the origin of the word “campus”, which comes from Latin And it means “field.” This is exactly what we want from our children: that they have an area here in which to develop and thus the seeds of education, but also of personal growth, will grow well. ”
