A first encounter with school: through play, in safety

In our kindergarten, children aged 3–5 come to love learning through a play-based programme and are prepared for primary school.

Kindergarten classroom
Ages 3, 4 and 5

A separate class for each age group; children who have completed 36 months are admitted.

Own entrance, own section

The kindergarten is separate from older students, with its own indoor play area.

English every day

An English teacher is in the classroom during parts of the day; the language is acquired through songs and games.

Specialist teachers

Music, visual arts, physical education and chess are taught by subject teachers.

The kindergarten years lay the foundations of a child's confidence and curiosity. What matters most is that every child feels safe and valued.

Our programme

The Ministry of National Education's pre-school programme is enriched with the shared practices of TED Schools. Language, cognitive, social-emotional, motor and self-care skills are addressed as a whole, and every activity is planned according to the child's stage of development. In the five-year-old group, pencil control, attention and phonological awareness activities ease the transition to primary school.

A day in the kindergarten

The day begins with circle time. Turkish language activities, mathematics and science activities, English and specialist lessons follow one another. After lunch and rest, the day ends with free play and reflection; when the weather allows, some activities take place in the garden.

Working with parents

Our counselling unit follows each child from the settling-in period onwards and shares its observations in regular parent meetings. Parents follow their child's progress through weekly bulletins.
