Schleusegrund: Kindergarten fees rise drastically after 13 years!

The community of Schleusegrund is facing an important change for families with small children. From the beginning of 2026, kindergarten fees will increase significantly. This is the first increase in 13 years; Parental contributions were last adjusted in 2013. Mayor Heiko Schilling justifies the decision with the increased operating and collective bargaining costs for kindergarten employees. These factors make it necessary to increase contributions in order to continue to guarantee a high quality standard of care.

In recent years, the statutes have remained unchanged despite budget security, but the necessary adjustments to the new care ratios, which require more employees, are now unavoidable. This means a noticeable relief for the municipal budget, but also an additional financial burden for the parents. What is particularly noteworthy is that the Sonnenblume kindergarten in Schönbrunn was recognized as the first biosphere kindergarten this year. The increase in fees could therefore also be seen as an investment in the future.
