About the facility
On 4 September 2023 we opened the first facility for children in Katowice. We are delighted that KIDS&Co. has arrived in historic Silesia. Silesia Star is one of the brightest stars in the center of Katowice. A cosmic mix of classics, style and an otherworldly location. Green common spaces, a large number of parking spaces and convenient access to public transport. All this makes Silesia Star a true galaxy of comfort.
The unearthly location of Silesia Star means that everything is at your fingertips. Shopping and services, cultural and sports events, galleries, conferences, educational and public institutions as well as the proximity of public transport with the main station make it close to everything. The modernized, green Silesia Star patio is a place where you can take a deep breath. Perfect for a moment of relaxation after picking up the child from kindergarten.
KIDS&Co. Kindergarten and Nursery is located on an area of about 420 m², in four rooms — two nurseries and two kindergartens, each with its own bathroom with direct access from the room. There are a recreational area for children in the immediate vicinity of the office building and parking spaces for parents.
