Mission statement
At the Frisky Dolphins kindergarten we strive for the evolvement, development, and education of a versatile character of your child through educational situations that are cognitively designed and structured in a complex way. Our effort is supported by the beautiful natural surroundings, the cheerful, snug, and loving atmosphere.
Our kindergarten is open-minded: our primary goal is to educate children, to support their development, and to provide a supplement to family upbringing building on our partnership with parents, in harmony with societal development and environmental needs. We strive to ensure that the efficient operation of our local education program is in line with each child’s pace of personal development, and is carried out in a loving, emotionally safe atmosphere.
We provide a wide range of facilities, to live through the enjoyment of motion, which will provide them with physical, mental, and social harmony.
We would like to provide our kindergarteners the kind of experiences, which hopefully will be decisive and lasting in their lives with use of foreign languages, arts, tales, poetry, puppetry, imaging and by the wonders of nature.
We pay attention to prevention, differentiated engagement, adopting diversity, in order to prevail in equal opportunity.
We provide the conditions to basic activities so the children can blossom their skills to a higher level with the lead of our kindergarten teachers.
We believe, that at the end of the term, beside their mother tongue the children will be able to speak English, and with the coordinated activities of the parents and the kindergarten they will grow to be honest, open, curious, independent, tolerant, kind-hearted, cheerful, helpful children with sufficient self-discipline and decision-making ability.
