Preschool Piet Hein
2 to 4 year
Preschool Piet Hein is located at the Piet Hein community school, close to the city centre and the Amsterdamse Bos. The preschool opened in 2020 and the location is spacious with large windows for natural light. The groups are connected to a central indoor hall and surrounding nature garden.
The children in our preschool group have different nationalities, and they learn about each other’s customs and Dutch culture.
We highly focus on children’s language development. We use Logo 3000 to encourage language development, a tool to increase children’s vocabulary naturally through play. We also provide many language-development-oriented activities and combine this with a range of music and dance activities, creativity and sports and exercise. Emotional safety is paramount here. Also the handovers with the parents at the preschool are essential to us.
