About the preschool

Open from at 7:45am to 4:30pm

Miðborg preschool is a 6-division school that opened in 2011 as a result of the merger of three preschools: Lindarborg at Lindargata 26, Njálsborg on Njálsgata 9-11, and Barónsborg on Njálsgata 70. Njálsborg closed in fall 2023. Vörðuborg opened in fall 2024 at Barónsstígur 34.

Our focus is on building strong partnerships and collaboration with the diverse and vibrant community in the city center. This allows for fun and varied field trips that give children a deeper understanding of their community.

On average, there are 110 children enrolled at Miðborg at any given time, but the age range of the children varies between divisions and based on circumstances. The departments are named Krossfiskadeild, Kuðungadeild, Skeljadeild, Regnbogaland, Krílakot, Hæð, Klöpp and Holt.

Philosophy

The strategy and vision of our preschool are currently being developed, but play is a top priority. We also place a strong emphasis on promoting multiculturalism, ensuring that the diversity of all who attend the preschool is celebrated and embraced every day. We recognize that everyone is unique, and we strive to create an environment where everyone can participate and feel welcomed on their own terms as the strength of our society lies in its diversity.

All Reykjavík City preschools have parent associations and parent councils.

The Center for Miðborg

Miðborg Preschool falls under West Center. West Center provides a wide range of services to the residents of Vesturbær, Miðborg, and Hlíðar and is a comprehensive information source for municipal services. The Center provides welfare services, school services to preschool and primary schools, day care and recreational counseling, and various other services.

Child prosperity

The Act on the Integration of Services in the Interest of Children’s Prosperity has come into effect. The goal is to ensure children and guardians receive the right assistance, at the right time, from the right parties.

Families and children in need of early support have guaranteed access to a prosperity contact in the child's immediate environment, such as in preschool or primary school. The prosperity contact offers information and guidance on services and ensures that children and guardians have unhindered access to these services.

Children, youth, and guardians can reach the school prosperity contact to request integrated services.

The contact person for Miðborg is: Inga Sólborg Ingibjargardóttir
