The kindergarten is specialized in daily outdoor living. We believe it is mentally and physically healthy for children to be outdoor for the most of the day. The aim is to stimulate and support children in developing their personality so that they can lead a healthy life now and later. It is important for us that everyone feels as a part of the community. We have focus on each child´s skills and positive aspecs. We belive everybody is good at something. Difference creates variety and challenge. We have focus on developing our potentials, children and adults.
The employees should be able to reflect on own being and relations to the child. The kindergarden is independent and has its own elected board - but still assigned to the local authorities responsible for childrens care.
💼 What the programme involves
The kindergarten activities follow the seasons very closely. Recently harvest took place and we had a celebration inviting the families. In the winter, we make bonfires to make food, such as soup, but also to keep warm. Sometimes when the weather gets rough we find shelter in the stables or do gymnastics/sports in the gym. However, every year we hope for a snowy winter because we love playing and sledging in the snow.
We also do a lot of singing and playing, storytelling, drawing, painting and many other activities and the volunteer is expected to take active part in the activities. We have four groups of children aged 0-3, 3-4, 4-5 and 5-6 under the same roof with different outside activities and right now we have 50 children and 8 staff.
