Every year, we meet up at a local park to compete in track-and-field. It’s a funfilled day and we compete against thousands of children in Swedish Schools all over the world.
Every year around Lucia, IKEA invites everyone to its traditional Julbord and the Swedish School contributes with its traditional Children’s Lucia procession.
Every year in March our children participate in “Lilla Vasaloppet”. Using wooden skis they race across the lawn to the finish line.
Naturens Dag 2016: Beach Cleanup
Our mission is to provide for our children a sense of belonging in the Swedish community, an opportunity to form lasting friendships with other Swedish children, and an understanding of what it means to be Swedish. The primary goal of the Swedish School is to support the parents in their efforts to teach their children about the Swedish culture and language.
The foundation of the Swedish School is the parents’ desire to teach their children about the Swedish language, culture, and traditions. The success of the school is a direct reflection of the parents’ involvement in the organization, classrooms, events, and fundraising.
We want to open doors for our children, and enable them to study, work and live in Sweden if they should so desire.
Our educational goals (as outlined by Skolverket’s kursplan) include teaching our children to communicate in Swedish both verbally and in writing. The goal is also for the children to learn and reflect on environmental and societal issues in Sweden, as well as the country in which they live.
We meet every other Sunday at 2 pm at the Scandinavian Center in Davie, Florida.
2950 S Flamingo Rd, Davie, FL 33330
