We want to create new happy memories together through learning

Our operations are based on key values that are reflected in all our daily activities. We want to create new happy memories together through learning. We offer activities that support the child's development in Finnish and English. Our goal is that activities in a multilingual environment awaken children's linguistic curiosity and desire to experiment with a foreign language and different cultures.

Application for daycare

The daycare is family-oriented

Private Rauman englanninkielinen lastentarhayhdistys ry is a non-profit association which is founded in 1984. The daycare centre maintained by the association, Rauman Enkkutarha, is family-oriented, meaning that parents have the opportunity to be involved in and support the activities if they wish.

Multiculturalism is truly a richness in our daycare! The main language in our daycare is Finnish, and English is used alongside it in everyday activities. Children have the opportunity to become familiar with the English language naturally through play and daily activities. Knowledge of English is not a requirement; the most important thing is that children can grow and learn safely in Finnish while also getting their first exposure to English. All children are welcome in our daycare, regardless of their language background.

Our values guide our daily activities

Play is a tool for all learning! We want to offer children a safe, equal and encouraging environment through joyful learning, experiences and activities, which gives the child important opportunities for success.

Our goal is to arouse interest in foreign languages and different cultures. We offer activities that support your child's development, where the English language works as a tool for learning and activities alongside the Finnish language. We operate in accordance with the national and Rauma city early childhood education plan.

We have three groups

In our kindergarten, we have three groups for children: Busy Bumblebees, Clever Foxes, and Wise Owls.

Presence and good interaction are the basis of our activities, both among children and educators. We can see the teams' ability to be truly present. We give the child room to participate, invent and develop, as well as make mistakes and try again.

The main goal of learning English in groups is to develop a positive attitude towards the new language and create joy in learning something new.

Our Values are

Children's participation and child orientation
Learning through play
Educational partnership with families
Small group activities and full-time pedagogy
Warm and appreciative interaction
The rich world of languages including the English language
Safety and sustainability
