“Are you looking for somewhere your children can play with others that look like them? Are they tired of being a minority in their schools or daycares? Escape forced ‘diversity’ and join other proud parents of European children as we create an atmosphere in which our kids can feel like they belong."
The notice further read:

"Invest in your child’s sense of well-being and racial identity by giving them the gift of time spent amongst their own people – because they deserve it.”
