The eco-lonie, a different kind of Meyrin day-care center

Collaboration for a unique offering in the canton of Geneva

The collaboration of L’Atelier du Zèbre ColoréGraine de Carotte and Incroyables Comestibles Meyrin will welcome children aged 5 to 12 to 2 sites, offering them a wide range of activities in the heart of the town. By combining the skills of Atelier du Zèbre Coloré, a specialist in creative activities, and those of Graine de Carotte, a specialist in nature-related activities and school vegetable gardens, we can offer a rich and varied program of activities focused on eco-responsibility and the circular economy.

Discover nature in Meyrin!

Although Meyrin is a highly urbanized commune, it’s full of natural spaces! Forests, vegetable gardens, parks and a lake – the town has no shortage of places to explore nature.

Throughout the week, depending on the weather and your preferences, we’ll be offering a variety of outdoor activities to help you discover the curiosities of the world around you.

Promoting the circular economy

These 2 camps are subsidized by the Service de la culture and by Meyrin durable (which enables us to offer a week at CHF 300.-)
As a matter of principle, we believe that public money should be reinvested locally.This is why all supplies, snacks and other expenses will be made exclusively in Meyrin businesses (SPP, La Fraisière…).
