Our classrooms

Kidergarten aim

Making a suitable relationship between child and other infants, families, school and adults is determined thrpugh the definition of a suitable context for a better personality development. Kindergarten aims at widening and completing family action (still crucial), acting as a bridge with the external world.


Kindergarten educational path

We believe that our educational path should develop mainly through four areas of experience,

not necessarily isolated from each other:


The first (corporeality) recognizes, develops and guides motor skills for the mastery of one’s body and as a moment of communicatio with others.


The second (communication) aims at developing expressive, linguistic and cognitive skills through the use of both verbal and non - verbal languages, and the communicative function of situations, spaces, objects for a complete exchange of individual and group messages.


The third (logic) arricchisceenriches

the develoment of knowledge with particular regard to discoveries, classifications, serial comparisons, languages and symbols. In this context, mathematical experience is urged:

it will take on even greater importance in the formation of the infantile personality with the application of schemes, numbers and figures. The goal is to encourage the development of thought and reasoning.


Finally, environment aims at achieving sensory, percpetive, exploratory knowledge through manual activities, and an elementary scientific approach, of a physical and biological type. Alongside the direct use of senses for the knowledge of the surrounding environment, we believe it is important to add the contribution of different physical and cultural environments. This will be possible by overcoming an ethnocentriv vision, thanks to the contribution of other cultural contexts and acting through activities of multicultural and multi - ethnic inspiration, with the aim of inserting the child in a world which is increasingly characterized by the interaction of valuesm behaviors, different models.


Wide Outdoor Spaces

FINALITA' DELLA SCUOLA DELL' INFANZIA

The goal of our preschool project is to help develop the child's personality by orienting their relationships with the outside world,

Thanks to the effort of interpretation resulting from this interaction, the

child adapts their behavior and advances in self-knowledge.


At the same time, the infantile personality will be able to overcome the confusion between subjective and objective experiences (due to the pre-eminence of the ego typical of this age) and to give a character of collaboration and reciprocity to the relationship with external reality, initially mainly dependent on adults. .

The egocentric characteristic of childhood does not allow the child to distinguish their own inner world from the real dynamics, so the knowledge of others, the exploration of the external environment, the realization of experiences, the logical-communicative development, the very discovery of themselves require a training course whose actions help the child to share the self and things with others.
