Review of open house evening on the future of De Regenboog primary school
Last week, together with Fluks Opvang en Onderwijs, we engaged in discussions with local residents about the plans for the renovation or new construction of De Regenboog primary school. The aim of the evening was to gather the views of those living nearby.
Why is renovation or new construction necessary?
In 2022, the municipality of Bergeijk, school boards, childcare organizations, and youth care services agreed to collaborate more effectively. This will enable us to better support the development of children aged 0 to 13 in Bergeijk. Good school buildings are essential for this. That is why we will invest in all schools in Bergeijk over the next 10 to 15 years, including the building of De Regenboog primary school.
Where do we start now?
Our preference is to build the new school on the site of the former De Zonnesteen primary school. This school has merged with Prinses Beatrix primary school, and both will be housed in a new building on Domineestraat. This will free up the building of De Zonnesteen. During the open house evening, attendees could ask questions, share ideas, and engage in discussions with the involved parties. The event was well attended and provided valuable insights that will be incorporated into the further development of the plans.
