«We at Oescher can steer it if we think more sustainably!»
The School Oescher is a model for integrated environmental education for students. It is a holistic sustainable school and thus an attractive calling card for the municipality of Zollikon. We support the mission statement of Zollikon School and the Curriculum 21, anchor environmental education comprehensively within the existing structures, and implement it practically.
Together, we stand for more sustainability. At Oescher School, we want to understand and comprehend the world. We uphold our values, continuously develop, and think long-term, across generations. Personally, I am excited about children who are curious and hopeful. Children who can take their steps and experiences with open eyes. Children at Oescher become researchers and experts. They learn to recognize connections and draw their own conclusions. Children are our future!

Local voices
«Sustainability is more than just climate. Sustainability teaches us and our children to use and apply resources carefully and to manage them economically. As Zollikon School, we want to be part of this endeavor – precisely because of our children and their future.»
«What we sow today, our children will one day reap. This makes it even more important to engage at the municipal level for environmental and climate protection. The municipal council has set corresponding goals. We are happy to walk this path together with the school. Through concrete activities, the students learn what sustainable thinking and acting means.»
«Showing children the importance of sustainable action is part of today’s curriculum. The Oescher school team is taking concrete steps for Zollikon School as a pilot school with a focus on ‘sustainability.’ Based on an idea from the parent council with sustainable impacts, an enthusiastic working group now accompanies this theme. This is how school should be today: a shared experience – school, children, and parents. Because sustainability concerns us all.»
«„Ethics starts at the point of pain.“ This moment is now; the children want to experience that we adults are doing something real for the environment. No ‘should, must, would have’ … but action. The experts from MYBLUEPLANET are accompanying us. Together, we will make a sustainable transformation at Oescher and experience self-efficacy.»
