Daily activities

Dalheimar is the first joint after-school program in the world to have received UNICEF's Rights Respecting After-School Program certification and uses, among other things, recreational reading in connection with the project. Dalheimar has received Reykjavík City's Rainbow Certification. Dalheimar works with health-promoting after-school programs and Green Steps, for example, with environmental Fridays where leftover food is offered for the afternoon snack, only using paper for arts and crafts, and much more. To empower the children and increase their independence, Dalheimar also offers roles for the children for participating in Dalheimar's work, like running a club, assisting in the dining hall, and more.

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.

Information on the prosperity contacts for children at the Dalheimar after-school program can be found on the websites of Laugarnesskóli and Langholtsskóli.
