On 16.05.25, a very special morning took place at the kindergarten of the German Embassy School Addis Ababa: Grandparents’ Day. The guests were welcomed with great joy by the children and the kindergarten team. The excitement was palpable as soon as they arrived – for many children it was something very special to welcome their grandparents into their kindergarten world.

The focus of the morning was on the exchange between the generations. The grandparents told the children stories from their own childhood and gave exciting insights into another time.

The grandparents also had the opportunity to get to know their grandchildren’s everyday kindergarten life. The Grandparents’ Day was a valuable opportunity to build bridges between the generations, share memories and create new ones together. The kindergarten team would like to thank all grandparents for their visit and is already looking forward to a repeat next year.
