New construction After-school care centre and school extension Neue Hegel­straße 19

Project description

The new construction of a six-group after-school care centre for 150 children with primary school extension areas was realised on the grounds of the Friedrich-Hegel-Schule. The new after-school care centre is used by children from the Friedrich-Hegel-Schule and other primary schools in the Maxfeld district.
 The school swimming hall, which had been closed down years ago, was demolished. The new building was constructed on the vacant site as an extension to the existing school. The building was erected on a thermally insulated load-bearing reinforced concrete floor slab as a three-storey solid construction without a basement. The staircase walls were constructed in exposed concrete, the façade with a thermal insulation composite system as a broom finish.
 The new building has a barrier-free main entrance at ground level. At the transition to the existing building, a lift provides access to all floors for the after-school care centre and the existing school.
 There are educational kitchens/distribution kitchens on both floors of the after-school care centre. The kitchen for the lunchtime child care is on the second floor. The group and multi-purpose rooms are ventilated with decentralised ventilation units with night cooling. 
 In the school area, the existing running track with jumping pit was relocated to the west side of the property. A grass playing field (60 x 30 m) and a small all-weather field (28 x 20 m) were created on the remaining area. A terrace area was built along the west side of the building, which is shaded with an awning in summer. In the middle of the outdoor facilities is a large lawn, next to which are playground equipment, a sand play area with an awning and a playhouse.
