SIS Winterthur

School premises reminiscent of the industrial heyday – internationality in a trendy business area.

Welcome to SIS Winterthur! Once the international production site of turbines, pumps and steel for the famous Sulzer company, the same premises are now home to our state-of-the-art schoolhouse. In this place of energy, children grow up to become bilingual, open-minded and committed global citizens. Learning both German and English at a young age, and with equal pedagogical consistency, is a gift that lasts for a lifetime.

Dear visitors,

SIS Winterthur has been successfully implementing the bilingual concept since 2001. Around one hundred students currently attend our school at the centre of “Eulach-City.” Both among local parents as well as families who have just moved here from abroad, SIS Winterthur enjoys an excellent reputation as the ideal school for children on their way to a globalised future.

Our two school languages, German and English, form a bridge connecting the twenty-plus nationalities under our roof. Students, teachers, and parents alike enjoy our multicultural setting with its many benefits.

A variety of activities strengthen our sense of community: school assemblies, projects involving different class groups, theme weeks on a variety of subjects as well as reading marathons, sports days, an Advent celebration and an end of year party - these are all key dates during the academic year, together with the celebration of local and international holidays and traditions.

Goal-oriented lessons and a healthy competitive spirit are what make our international and bilingual learning environment unique at SIS Winterthur.

Why don’t you come by and see for yourself!

Spreading our Wings

As part of a cooperative activity to get the new buddies working together, we created a giant set of wings. Each child has contributed at least one feather to the wings. The idea behind the wings is that we are more powerful together rather than alone.
