German playgroups- Lessons for children?

[eusweetheart]

We are moving to Dubai in April/May. We are British/Canadian/Colombian expats and our children have learned German for the past 4 years.

It would be a shame for them to lose this language as our son (5) is fluent.

Does anyone know of playgroups or German lessons offered to children? Preference would be around Emirates Hills area but we are not going to be picky!

Thanks in advance!

Thanks- but I was referring to extracurricular.

I suggest you contact the German consulate in Dubai and ask them. I think there's a German kindergarten in Al Quoz which isn't too far.

Googling 'German Kindergarten Dubai' and 'German schools Dubai' will give you info too.

Hello,
My name is Julia, I am 19 years old and come from Germany. In summer, 2010 I finish my education in the social assistant. I have many experiences with children. At the moment work in a playschool. I would work with pleasure from June till the middle of August in Dubai. I search a job as a nanny or teacher.

Hi Julia,

Thanks but we aren't there until August. I will come after my husband, just before my son starts school in September.

If you are still in Dubai we would be very interested in private lessons for the children. Can you send me your email on

Thank you!

Hi, I believe The Children's Garden use German - and French as well as English - I think.
Have you tried a good old Google search? Always a good starting point
