The association bears the name "Großes Schiff", association for the care of children as well as for intercultural and educational engagement with art, dance, theater and music.
Our program attaches great importance to the promotion and participation of people with a migration biography as well as the promotion of diversity within society.

We have the possibility to welcome our ESC Voluntaries to work in 4 different multilingual Kindergartens:

La Rueda, the original one, besides a big park
La Rueda 2.0, our most centrical group.
La Ruda 20.2, our newest group, really close to the original one.
La Rueda 22, our group in the outskirts of Vienna, close to the Danube Lake (Alte Donau).

We foster in all our groups on the multlinigual education in Spanish, German and English to the children, we have open minded, international (often Latin American) parents, but your language (mother tongue) is going to be a plus to our educational program and you are going to learn German and/or Spanish with the children coming to our Kindergartens.
