Preschool Options

Our Early Years Foundation programme follows the same school day hours as other academic stages, running from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm. Meals are included, and children may have a nap afterward lunch if necessary. If they prefer, parents can also take their children home earlier while they settle into their new learning environment.

We recognise that busy working parents may need extra support, which is why our Nursery in Marupe Novads offers an Afterschool Care club for an additional charge. Here, children are cared for in a safe and nurturing environment, enjoying fun and engaging activities from 3:30 pm to 5:00 pm.

Early Years Curriculum

The British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) programme at our preschool in Pinki follows the English National Curriculum, offering children interactive, play-based learning that develops their cognitive, social, and creative skills. This approach lays a strong foundation for both personal and academic success in the years ahead. By engaging children with key curriculum areas through playful interactions and exploration, we foster curiosity, inquiry, and understanding while also supporting their social, mental, and physical development.

From Pre-Nursery onwards, all activities—whether kicking a ball, building with blocks, painting, or singing—are conducted in English by our expert teachers, ensuring that learners develop the linguistic skills needed for success in Year 1 and beyond.

Pre-Nursery Stage

Our Pre-Nursery caters to toddlers aged 2 to 3 years, providing a secure environment that fosters English language acquisition. This stage prioritises relationships, happiness, and well-being, as happy learners are better equipped to thrive. Our caring and experienced staff introduce diverse and stimulating early learning activities aimed at character and skill development. We also prioritise communication between parents and teachers at this stage to ensure a seamless transition between home and school, contributing to each child's overall growth.

Nursery & Reception Stages

The Nursery and Reception classes for children aged 3 to 5 years provide an engaging learning environment where young learners take part in a variety of activities that prepare them for a successful transition to Key Stage 1 of the English National Curriculum. These two years are foundational in each child's learning journey at our preschool.

King's College Latvia follows the guidelines outlined in the Desirable Outcomes for Children's Learning, which include six key learning goals for children in an Early Years setting:

Language and Literacy support early language development. Our English teachers focus on daily activities that build reading and writing skills while engaging young learners to begin speaking English early.

Preschool mathematics teaches early numeracy by introducing children to basic mathematical concepts through practical activities and the consistent use of simple mathematical language.

The Knowledge and Understanding of the World curriculum helps Nursery and Reception children explore their environment, learning about their surroundings and other people.

Personal and Social Development lessons in our English preschool in Babite guide children in working, playing, and cooperating with others, helping them learn how to function as part of a group beyond their family.

The Physical Development programme for Nursery and Reception learners focuses on helping them enhance their motor skills and spatial awareness while promoting a positive attitude towards a healthy, active lifestyle.

The Creative Development syllabus nurtures early years children's imagination and enhances their ability to express ideas and emotions creatively.
