About Us

Welcome to Grow

Dear Parents, Students and Guardians,

Welcome to Grow in Kedungu and thank you for choosing our school.
As Head of School, I am honored to lead a community dedicated to nurturing
your child's academic, social and emotional growth.

Our name Grow reflects our commitment to excellence and your child's development.

Education is more than just facts, it's about fostering creativity, critical thinking,
social and emotional learning, and personal growth. Our goal is to provide a
caring environment where students can explore their passions, develop essential
skills for the future, and reach their full potential. We value collaboration,
respect and kindness and believe in a strong partnership between home and school.
Our team of educators is dedicated to supporting and guiding each student.
Together, we will create an engaging, inspiring and inclusive learning environment.

I am excited to embark on this journey with you and welcome you to the GROW family.

Warm regards,
Alexine Haus

Nathalie Haus - About Us at Growinkedungu

How It All Started

Every great adventure begins with a dream — and in our case, three dreamers with very different superpowers joined forces to create GROW. A school where learning is exciting, languages open doors, and academics are delivered with a big dose of fun.

✨ Alexine Haus — our fearless educator with two teenage “advisors” of her own — is on a mission to prepare kids for the future with wisdom, warmth, and a lot of heart.

✨ Bo Buysschaert — a creative powerhouse and mom — sprinkles her designer’s magic everywhere, making sure GROW looks and feels like a place kids (and parents!) love.

✨ Omri Ben-Canaan — a devoted dad and local business leader (Kosong Satu Group & The Kedungu Fund) — brings the brains and the backbone, keeping everything organized so the magic can actually happen.

Together, they imagined a school that’s safe, inspiring, and joy-filled — where kids can grow, explore, and thrive… all while having the time of their lives.

Our Mission

We all know that education is not only based on academic success but also a pathway to personal fulfillment. At GROW we equally want to emphasize the importance of mastering the basic academic knowledge so our children can understand the society and the world they live in. Therefore our mission is to provide each learner with high-quality education provided by highly qualified teachers.

Our Vision

At Grow in Kedungu, our vision is to be a beacon of excellence in education, where young children embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery, growth, and lifelong love for learning. We aspire to nurture compassionate, independent, and empowered individuals who embrace diversity, cultivate their unique talents and positively impact their communities in the world.

"Our teachers are
our strength!"

We continuously re-assess which are the skills and tools our kids need to be as successful as they can be in their future lives, capable of understanding the rapidly changing globalized world. In our school we work with highly qualified expat homeroom teachers.

The core elements of our vision are:

Lifelong and joyful learning

our learning center is a place where the joy of learning is palpable. We believe in igniting passion for knowledge that stays with our students throughout their lives.

Independent and child-centered education

where each child is at the heart of their educational journey. Our classrooms are a place of wonder where children’s innate curiosity and creativity are celebrated. We empower them to become confident, self-motivated learners, capable to solve problems and become active participants in their own education.

Holistic development

GROW forsters the physical, intellectual, emotional and social development of its students, ensuring they grow into well-rounded individuals.

Our facilities have been meticulously designed and equipped to provide the ideal setting for children's education and development as we understand the pivotal role that facilities play in shaping the educational experience. We want kids to feel happy and free to be who they are in our learning center.

Our spacious playground offers a variety of play equipment, including slides, swings, and climbing structures, where students can engage in active play and socialize with their peers. We also have a small vegetable garden and animal farm, where children can enjoy hands-on learning about nature, sustainability, and caring for living things—nurturing both curiosity and responsibility through real-life experiences.

Grow canteen

Welcome to the GROW Canteen, where healthy, delicious meals are prepared fresh every day to keep young taste buds inspired. Our menus are designed and reviewed by a nutritionist to ensure every dish meets the highest standards of health and wellness. We use only natural ingredients, with no MSG and no added sugar, because nourishing your child is our top priority.

But it’s not just about food, it’s about values. Each child receives their own reusable bento box, washed. Leftovers are composted or recycled, and even our chicks benefit from the scraps! In this way, students not only enjoy wholesome meals but also learn the importance of sustainability and mindful living.

See It for Yourself

Our facilities look impressive on paper, but nothing compares to experiencing them in person. Walking through our classrooms, gardens, and creative spaces, you’ll feel the energy, warmth, and sense of community that make our school special. And the best part? Watching your child’s eyes light up as they explore the spaces designed just for them. We’d love to show you around!
