Fit for Tomorrow: Investing in Our Children's Active Future
Thanks to the wonderful support of our community, we are thrilled to announce that we have reached our goal of CHF 250,000 for the all-weather pitch!
This incredible milestone is a testament to the generosity and dedication of our parents, alumni, and friends. Construction begins this March, and we cannot wait to see the positive impact this new space will have on our students’ daily lives.
From all of us at ZIS, thank you for making this achievement possible!
Stay tuned for updates as the all-weather pitch begins to take shape—we’ll be sharing every step of this exciting journey with you.

Project Timeline
Our aim is to begin refurbishing the all-weather sports field in February 2025, subject to securing the necessary permissions and funding. While these factors may influence the exact timeline, we hope the new pitch will be ready for the start of the school year in August 2025.
