Welcome to GECKOS!
German Language Community School Melbourne
German Language Community School Melbourne
Geckos is a community school operating in Melbourne, Victoria. Community schools are not-for-profit, after-hours language schools.
The schools aim is to teach German language and culture to students of all backgrounds, every Saturday during the normal school term, by trained and experienced teachers. Additional activities are also planned according to the interest and needs of the school community.
Geckos is a school for all ages. We have a playgroup for 0 – 3 year olds and the kindergarten program is based on immersion for those aged 3 and 4, providing fun filled play based activities.
From school age on we run two streams, one for native speakers and one for children with German as an additional language. Both streams are based on the current research of language learning. We also offer adult classes (beginner and advanced) for interested parents, grandparents and any other community members.
On behalf of all members of our community, we welcome you to our school.
