Heiser Children Begin Bilingual Kindergarten Acclimation in Poland

The family chose a GermanPolish language program on professional advice to ease their move from Namibia.

Overview

  • Anna Heiser reported that the first visit lasted about 30 minutes on guidance for a gentle start, with the children meeting educators, seeing the rooms, and interacting with peers.
  • The parents plan to extend the stay each day this week, with Leon and Alina expected to remain without their parents next week if the adjustment continues smoothly.
  • The kindergarten places the siblings in a German-speaking group where both German and Polish are used to help them gain confidence in Polish.
  • Anna said the children understand much of the language but struggle to answer, and early signs were positive as they began to play despite initial hesitation.
  • The move to Poland began on September 1, and Anna is sharing updates with her roughly 200,000 Instagram followers as she continues influencer work for now and considers a later career change.
