The nursery school opened in the spring of 2022, and its concept and strategy are therefore being developed. The foundation of professional work will be creative work, flow, and the environment acting as the third teacher.
Nursery schools give special attention to good care, communications, and language development and language stimulation will form the core of all school activities.
