Our offer
“Tell children they are good, smart and able …” J. Korczak
We aim to inspire, build confidence and prepare children for the next step in their academic journey. Children under our care grow in a safe, warm, creative environment where each child has the opportunity to encounter and learn from their own life experiences both individually and in group settings.
In both our nursery and preschool, children have the chance to explore their imagination and develop in an active environment.
We help children to develop their minds and bodies by encouraging independence and exploring their enviroment. Simultaneously, our preschool follows the national curriculum enforced by the board of education (MEN). This includes lessons in modern foreign languages, mathematics, science, art and crafts, social and moral development and classes focused on personal health and hygiene.
We work closely with a psychologist, speech therapist and methodologist to provide a highest level of early years education and care.

The Child
“the child is a miracle, unique, amazing and irreplacable” Phil Bosmans
A child should be treated as an individual who is on thier own unique journey, who with the correct resources has limitless possibilities. In our experience, a child learns best through thier own experiences, therefore, children at our preschool and nursery are presented with the opporunity to explore and spend their freetime and class time actively.
