The application process
Our Crèche welcomes children from the age of two.
Parents can apply for admission at any time of the year, but this does not mean immediate enrollment. New children are admitted continuously during the kindergarten year (from 1 September to 31 August). However, enrolment is dependent on capacity.
The final enrolment in our nursery/kindergarten for the next educational year ends on 20 May. The director decides on the final approval. The parents will be informed on the 25th May, at the latest.
As a first step, our registration form should be downloaded from our website and sent to our email address. You can either contact us by email or by phone to make an appointment and visit our chrèche. A visit usually takes about 2-3 hours, where both the parents and their child can see and experience our day at nursery. Any questions parents may have will be answered during the visit.
Documents required for the Enrollment:
- A medical certificate attesting to the child’s state of health and stating that the child is safe to go into the community
- The legal guardians’ documents of identification and address card
- The child’s TAJ card (health insurance), certificate of birth
Pre-enrollment has already started for the next year.
“Help me to do it by myself!”
We aim to develop the children’s physical, cognitive and mental abilities with the Montessori Method. This method, which is applicable in any culture, includes theoretical learning, practical life, social relations, and care for the environment.
What we offer
- We place great emphasis on the development of self-help skills and independence
- Children are introduced to English through poems, songs, and stories throughout the day
- There is also a strong emphasis on musical education: listening to music, singing, use of musical instruments
- We use Montessori education to develop skills in a playful way
- We organize spring and autumn garden parties with the parents and other activities for the children (Easter, Christmas, Mother’s Day, etc.)
- Weekly sensomotoric training
- End-of-the-Year performances
- Individual differentiation as needed
Our pedagogy follows the ideology of Montessori. Our most important daily activity is circle time, where we can focus on the world around us through music, rhymes, and games.
The Montessori method is not only characterized by the individual treatment of the children, but also by the structure of the classroom, where the toys and Montessori materials are placed on open shelves. By doing so, we also support the children’s self-development.
