Montessori kindergarten Solsikken, Gladheim, offers an educational approach based on the Montessori method, which emphasizes the children's freedom to choose activities. The nursery has four sections, two of which are for toddlers (Moon and Star) and two for older children (Venus and Jupiter). This provides the opportunity for adapted learning and development in a safe and stimulating environment.
The nursery is decorated with artwork from both children and established artists, which creates an inspiring atmosphere. In addition, they have a strong focus on sustainable development, where the children actively participate in processes such as waste sorting, planting and composting. This gives them the opportunity to learn about the cycles of nature, as well as develop social skills through cooperation and joint activities.
The location in a wooden villa with a panoramic view of the fjord provides a unique setting for the kindergarten's activities. Through a varied and engaging everyday life, the children have the opportunity to explore, learn and develop in line with the principles of Montessori pedagogy.
