Przedszkole nr 36 im. Wandy Chmielowskiej

Kindergarten no. 36 (Wandy Chmielowskiej) is located in the heart of Szczytnicki Park, near universities - in the most picturesque part of Wrocław. It is located in a beautiful, post-German building with a large garden. The proximity of the city center, while maintaining the peace and quiet of the suburbs - these are the great advantages of the location of our facility. The facility is attended by 90 children, who form four age groups from 3 to 6 years of age. In total, the kindergarten employs 12 teaching staff, three from the administrativedepartment and 7 service employees. Due to the musical profile, our kindergarten has the status of an elite kindergarten - we employ specialists in the field of learning to play the piano and rhythmics. Our preschoolers have equal opportunities for development, because the leading motto of preschool activities is the possibility of the success of each child - according to their abilities. The volunteer work coordinator in the kindergarten and the tutors have experience in working with volunteers from previous projects (so far we have hosted 10 volunteers). The decision to host volunteers is made each time before each project jointly by the Director and the Pedagogical Council; tutors are those teachers who report such willingness and readiness themselves. Our openness to multiculturalism has resulted in very efficient cooperation with volunteers from different parts of the world - regardless of their gender, skin color or social and material conditions. We are an open institution that focuses on partnership, kindness, and a creative style of work. In our kindergarten, all children are treated with respect and love. We recognize their individual needs and try to satisfy them. We create conditions for harmonious development. Children get to know the pleasure of communing with music and musical instruments, they feel the joy of learning and discovering the world, thanks to which they start school without stress, and then grow up to be creative people with wide interests, various talents and skills. Parents are the co-authors of their children's successes. They cooperate with teachers, receive detailed information about the progress and problems of their children.
