The surroundings are beautiful by the water. The catamaran is a small school where all the children know each other. There is a hardworking and friendly team with a heart for the children. In Oud-Loosdrecht, a bus runs, but it doesn't run often. Hence the lower score for accessibility. Lots of restaurants in the area, and if you are a water lover, you are in the right place here!
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the Catamaran, we have a small, close-knit and professional team that is open to growth and development. Team, parents and other partners work together for good education. We realise a future-proof and suitable offering for our children. The Catamaran stands for independent working and uses modern teaching methods for this. Furthermore, all children are offered English from group 1 and for group 1/2 we use the Kleuteruniversiteit.
Auto-translated to English by AII grew up here and I'll never leave. I don't want a wife or kids because it's so quiet here and I can sometimes invite a hooker and then I have what I sometimes need and no one sees it because it's a bit secluded.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe roads are good and it's easily accessible. A lot of activity in the summer and sometimes in the winter when people are skating. Especially a lot of cosiness during those times. In the winter, especially many atmospheric lights in the streets. In the summer, a lot of trouble with flies and in the winter with spiders.
