Playschool Lehtisaari provides early childhood education in English
Playschool Lehtisaari (formely known as Taikasaari) is a welcoming, multicultural playschool in the beautiful area of Lehtisaari, close to sea, forest, playgrounds and culture.
Playschool Lehtisaari provides early childhood education and care in English for children from 1 to 6 years old, while simultaneously supporting Finnish language development through our “Suomi Klubi” which is incorporated in our curriculum on weekly basis. We are also an Helsinki City approved Pre-school.
Through exploration, play, music, imagination, crafts, stories, and physical activity children expand their knowledge and build a strong foundation for a life-long positive attitude to learning. Children are encouraged to ask questions, to investigate and to share their learning with each other and all this happens in an environment where diversity is celebrated and multicultural awareness is nurtured, seeing each child as unique and valuable.
Excellent communication and cooperation with guardians are very important to us and several occasions are organized each year to closely involve families in our playschool life.
In Pilke Lehtisaari, we follow the Finnish National Core Curriculum for Early Childhood Education and Care, and we focus on learning & growing through play and self-expression.
In addition, we based our methodology on learning environments to support children’s development. Because research informs us that experience is the trigger that enables children to organize their brains to support the challenges they meet, and because we know that these experiences support the development of the whole child—social, emotional, cultural, linguistic, physical, and cognitive—a positive learning environment for young children needs to provide activities for all these aspects of growth.
In order to achieve this, we organize our classrooms to include activity areas/corners that offer opportunities for hands-on, play-based learning supported by a rich array of available materials that invite children to inquire, explore, discover, solve problems and engage with each other about ideas and learning experiences.
We love to go outside as well! We enjoy going on excursions, to parks, festivals, libraries, and cultural events and to spend lots of fun times playing outdoors!
The world is a wonderful place and together with the children we explore and wonder every day!
Come and join us and discover first-hand the amazing community we are.
