The school is a primary school in Polderstad on the Schoolstraat[1]. Two people are known to work there, Meester Bas Buldog the teacher and S. Bernard[2] the cleaner. The story follows Alfred Jodocus Kwak in his primary school years throughout episode 4 through episode 8, but the school only appears in the first three of those. Other students include Dolf de Kraai, Ollie de Ooievaar and Pikkie de Ekster.[3][4][5]

Notable features

The school is a rectangular building with side walls that come up in stepped gables, and a school yard in front of it. The main entrance has a big brown two-door entrance, reachable by a small staircase with circular steps. There is a second entrance on the side face of the building that has a little bell off to the side. On top of the school is a small bell tower. Two windows jut out from the roof, and several windows are flush with the rooftiles. The school yard is surrounded by a white fence.

The main hallway is perpendicular to the main entrance and has foor doors to four different classrooms. Going around the left end of the hallway leads into stairwell to the upper floor. There's a slight discrepancy where the classrooms have windows in episode 5, but not episode 6. Several spherical lights hang from the ceiling.
