Upon entering the school, its conceptual focus becomes clear. The entrance leads directly into the large dining hall, the heart of the building. Here, the children eat the meals they cook in the teaching kitchen. In this space, the other services the school offers also become apparent: a free library, open learning spaces and, most of all, the gymnasium. Exercise and sports are essential activities of the school and constitute its second pedagogical focus.
