Preschool

Located at Mäntytie 14, Meilahti, Helsinki

We believe that a successful classroom is a space where children thrive in an engaging, creative, and nurturing environment. Our preschool education supports each child's physical, psychological, and social growth, alongside the development of their knowledge and skills. Imaginative play is crucial for positive development and helps children acquire new knowledge and skills. Daily activities provide ongoing opportunities for children to enhance their English language skills and explore phenomena that interest them. Ensuring that children feel comfortable and confident is also a key aspect of our preschool curriculum.

The English School preschool offers a fully immersive, two-year English language program with a core curriculum aligned with the Finnish national standards. This program is an ideal preparation for entry into The English School's bilingual (Finnish-English) elementary program.

Our preschool is a two-year program and the first year, Preschool 1, begins the year your child turns five. The second preschool year is Preschool 2.

Preschool 1 hours are 12.00-16.00

Preschool 2 hours are 8.00-12.00

Both Preschool 1 and Preschool 2 are taught in two groups and each group has an assistant.
