The early years in children’s development are prominent in building their personality and shaping their character. Little Elly Preschool offers an educational framework for children between the ages of 2 to 6 years that significantly contributes to their development and addresses their needs at the start of their journey through the state education system. It is important for this first encounter to be a constructive experience for children and their family, establishing a sense of trust and confidence that will accompany them from preschool throughout the whole school system. In our little Elly ,children join their peer group, forming various social interactions. They learn social moods and acceptable behavior patterns; they also develop sensitivity, awareness and empathy as well as moral values and social integrity. Through their diverse experiences the children become acquainted with the world and their natural curiosity leads them to investigate further, solve problems and realize their potential in a variety of subjects. Young children are prompted to play in a wide range of playing experiences: symbolic games, role playing (socio-dramatic games) as well as structured’ rule based games. Children learn to creatively express themselves in a variety of ways; our preschool provides them with the space to experience movement and develop their self-confidence and sense of competence and control. Each child’s unique personality is developed while emphasizing individuality on the one hand and a feeling of belonging on the other. Our educational staff works according to a systemic approach that takes into account the children, their parents and families, and the characteristics of their community. The staff encourages children to learn and research, widening their horizons through both pre-structured and spontaneous activities.
