Children: childcare and school
Holmsland Børnehus in Kloster has a nursery and a kindergarten. There are about 15 children in the nursery and just under 40 in the kindergarten.
Holmsland Skole is also in Kloster. It has about 75 pupils from reception class (year 0) to year 6. After that, most go on to Ringkøbing Skole and a few to Hvide Sande.
In the annual well-being surveys, Holmsland Skole usually scores 100%, according to the community association.
According to holmsland.dk, a new childcare centre was to be built next to the school in autumn 2025. Once it is finished, the nursery and kindergarten will be together again.
