The Europaskolan school building at Gotlandsgatan 43 on Södermalm

Facilities

Where learning happens

Our campus on Södermalm, our countryside site at Eknäs Gård and the wider city and nature we use as classrooms.

Main building

Our main building is located at Gotlandsgatan 43, on the island of Södermalm in central Stockholm, a short walk from Skanstull on the green metro line. The classroom layouts have been completely redesigned, and work on a new entrance and lobby is under way.

Eknäs Gård

Set in 15 hectares of idyllic countryside 35 kilometres south of Stockholm, our Eknäs Gård site provides students with practical learning opportunities and experiences that are key elements of the IB approach.

We believe that coupling what students learn in the classroom to real-world experiences, as well as acquiring valuable life skills, is a vital part of the school's overall offering. Our activities at Eknäs Gård are grounded in the IB requirement of learning by experience.

Physical education and outdoor life

Students in our PYP and MYP programmes take part in a wide variety of physical education and outdoor life activities off campus. They enjoy team-building events such as outdoor camping while learning to prepare meals and build shelter in nature.

Students also learn to become experienced hikers while mastering orienteering, and visit local facilities such as rock-climbing gyms, swimming halls, ice rinks and frozen lakes. No two days are the same when it comes to the experiences students enjoy outside the classroom.
