Before and After School Care 

(Buitenschoolse Opvang – BSO)

From 2006 it has become the law that School Boards of Governors are obliged to arrange care for children both before and after school. This is known in Dutch as the BSO (buitenschoolse opvang). The School Board has chosen the ‘estate agent model’. This means that, as a parent, you are able to choose whether to use an after school care facility and also to choose which one.

The School Board has signed an agreement with one organisation that offers BSO services within the school premises. This organisation is obliged to fulfill the legal requirements. This ensures that your child will be well cared for.

The organisation is Columbus.  For more information and to register your child please visit their website: https://www.childcareeindhoven.nl/en/locations/columbus

Parents must make their own arrangements with the BSO about the care and payment for the after-school care is also made directly to Columbus.

There is also the option to use BSO The Kids Company. They are located at a different location, but pick up children at our location. For more information and to register your child, we refer you to the website of The Kids Company: https://www.thekidscompany.nl/
