About this care
At BSO Baloe in Tegelen we welcome children aged 4 to 13 into a homely, safe environment. We are located in the multifunctional centre Passe Partout at van Wevelickhovenstraat 7A, which also houses the toddler care, day-care and primary school Passe Partout. This collaboration allows children from 0 to 13 years to receive both care and education in one familiar place.
Our rooms are cosily furnished and offer plenty of opportunities to play, discover and learn. Children can use the art studio, kitchen and play hall. In addition, they are allowed to make use of various facilities within the school, such as the gym, the crafts room and the playground. Our large, beautifully landscaped garden invites outdoor play and romping.
We work with the Spring Actief method. This method provides varied activities that we devise together with the children. Think of cooking, crafts, sports and games, and nature experiences. During the school holidays we organise special activity programmes with extra workshops, excursions and challenging projects, making every holiday unforgettable.
Our dedicated and experienced staff ensure that both children and parents quickly feel at home. We value a warm, personal approach and small groups so that every child receives the attention they deserve. Feel free to drop by for a tour and experience the pleasant atmosphere at BSO Baloe yourself.Read more
