Daily activities

In Sólbúar we place a strong emphasis on diverse choice, good communication with parents and schools, and ensuring everyone has fun. We in Sólbúar are very proud of our ball area, and in Marsbúar, we often work on longer projects, for example, building large Lego statues together. As long as we can remember, Sólbúar has been known for an exceptionally good work ethic resulting in less staff turnover than many places which influences the children. Sólbúar take place in the projects of Recreational Literacy, Rights Respecting After-School Program, and Green Steps.

Practical information

Fee schedule

Here you can access the fee schedule for the school year and summer break activities in after-school programs. You'll also find information on sibling discounts and various other details.

Child prosperity

The Act on the Integration of Services in the Interest of Children’s Prosperity has come into effect. The goal is to ensure children and guardians receive the right assistance, at the right time, from the right parties. Families and children in need of early support have guaranteed access to a prosperity contact in the child's immediate environment, such as in preschool or primary school. The prosperity contact offers information and guidance on services and ensures that children and guardians have unhindered access to these services. Children, youth, and guardians can reach the school prosperity contact to request integrated services.

Information on the prosperity contacts for children at the Sólbúar after-school program can be found on the website of Breiðagerðisskóli
