Preschool Boechorststraat
2 to 4 year
Places available *
Preschool Boechorststraat is located on the campus of the Vrije Universiteit (VU). We provide both regular preschool and early-childhood education (in Dutch: VE). With the Uk & Puk programme we promote the children’s overall development, while Logo3000 helps them build a larger vocabulary.
In all our activities, we help our toddlers to confidently make the transition to primary school. We focus on development throughout the day, with weekly recurring fun activities.
For example, our art studio opens on Mondays. The children create a flute or sports medal when we are engaged in the theme: ‘Talent’, or they paint a self-portrait for the theme: ‘This is me’. Who will discover the Picasso in themselves? Tuesdays is the day for toddler gym. We climb, clamber and dance in the gym. This makes great exercise! We embark on outdoor adventures on Thursdays and Fridays. We sow and harvest tomatoes in our nature garden, explore the botanical garden of the Vrije Universiteit (VU) or play in “our backyard”: Amsterdamse Bos.

What does a day at our preschool look like?
Each preschool location has its own daily routine. Below, you can read what the mornings look like. The same schedule is used in the afternoons, which start at 1 pm. Our educational staff will be happy to tell you more.
07.45
Between 7:45 and 8:00 a.m., we welcome your child and we will discuss how you all are doing. Parents can stay for a while during the drop-off time to read a book, do a puzzle or play a game with their child. 08.00
After you have said goodbye to each other, we will start at the table. We sing songs, talk to the children about what they are up to and discuss what we are going to do that day. We also have something small to eat and drink. 09.00
There is room for free play and activities aimed at the child’s development. This includes activities such as reading a book together in the group, messing about in the workshop, dancing in the central hall or exploring the nature garden. 12.00
From 12 p.m. you can pick up your child again and it’s time for the handover with the educational staff member and to go through the day. The educational staff member will particularly go into your child’s growth during the day.
