A festive spirit fills Hof Preschool as it prepares to celebrate its 30th anniversary this Sunday, June 7. To mark the occasion, the preschool planned a full week of events, bringing children, staff, and supporters together to celebrate the milestone.

Yesterday, the preschool hosted an anniversary gathering, where guests from the surrounding neighborhood joined staff and children to celebrate. Attendees included neighborhood preschool directors, former staff members, and others connected to the preschool over the years. Beautiful decorations adorned the preschool, and everyone present felt the excitement and joy.

Mayor's visit delights the children

A visit from newly elected Mayor Hildur Björnsdóttir highlighted the day, as she took time to meet with the children. The children eagerly waited to welcome her and made the most of the opportunity to show off their work, including artwork displayed on the walls and plants they grew themselves. They also enjoyed relaxed conversations, with the children sharing stories about daily life at the preschool.
