Resumo: Local community: Kreamont is situated in St. Andrä Wördern. This is a little community 25 km outside of Vienna - it is very easy to reach Vienna with public transport systems. There are approx. 10.000 inhabitants. Our school is in the centre of St. Andrä, so restaurants, schools, shops,… can easily reached by foot.
During the summer there are a lot of possibilities to relax along the old Danube and in the open air swimming pools. Autumn and spring are the best times to explore the surroundings by bike or by feet. In Winter there are a lot of possibilites to go cross - country skiing and to do other outdoor sports.
Vienna, Tulln and Krems are easily accessible via public transport.

In our community live people of almost 80 different Nations. Our government is very proud of that. So we have some projects for example "grenzenloskochen" -"borderless cooking".This projects offers all inhabitants the possibility to cook together with people from other countries. So everyone could learn more about different meals, traditions and customs. www.grenzenloskochen.at- some pictures about the project.
