Pilke music-oriented daycare centre Majakka

Pilke opened the music-oriented daycare centre Majakka on Aisapolku Street, Raahe, on Monday 5 August 2019. Majakka provides high-quality child-centred early childhood education and care at a warm-spirited daycare centre.

The music-oriented daycare centre’s objective is to provide the children with musical experiences, capacities and skills as well as experiences of learning and success. We also encourage the children to start longer-term musical hobbies. The music-oriented education is implemented in the daycare centre’s everyday operation through singing, playing instruments, listening to music, reading rhymes, improvising, exercising and dancing, for example.

We naturally reserve time for other versatile activities, such as trips, drama, handicraft and painting, not to forget sufficient daily rest. Everyday pedagogy is also part of every moment of our operation. It is present in pausing to wonder things together; counting peas in the salad bowl or experimenting with colours when painting. We value each unhurried moment we get to spend conversating, playing or just being silly while exploring the world together. We encourage the children to try their best as well as to accept the diversity of people. They steadily grow into independent individuals who can rely on their skills and dare to dream.
