During the fall break from October 19 to 30, 2026, the University of Siegen will once again offer after-school care for the children of its employees and students. Registration is now open —those who wish to secure a spot should submit the completed registration form by October 12, 2026, at the latest.
The program is for schoolchildren ages 6 to 14 and runs Monday through Friday, with the option to enroll on a weekly or daily basis. Participants can choose between half-day care (until 1:30 p.m.) and full-day care from 7:45 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The program features a variety of age-appropriate and creative activities: In collaboration with the university’s departments and facilities, as well as external instructors, numerous exciting workshops are organized each year. These are complemented by sports, games, plenty of fun, and a hot lunch every day.
Costs (per day of care):
- General staff: €10.50 (half-day) / €13.00 (full-day)
- Students and scholarship recipients: €7.50 (half-day) / €10.00 (full day)
- Professors and external participants: €12.50 (half-day) / €15.00 (full-day)
Employees with an annual income below €30,000 may apply for a fee reduction. Students may also apply to the AStA Social Services Office to have their fees covered. For each additional child, only half the fee for the first child is charged.
Registration for external families: Families who are neither studying nor employed at the university may also register their children—provided that childcare spots are still available at the time of registration.
