Location
Our extensive outdoor area boasts a cycling path, sandboxes, water channels, playground equipment, natural spots, a kitchen garden, rugged terrain, and a campfire spot. We're also located within close proximity to scenic hiking areas like Storetveitmarken and the woods around Fantoft Stave Church. For parents who come kids by car, we have designated parking spots for easy pickups and drop-offs.
Divisions
Our kindergarten is divided into four core areas: Musøre, Sølvpoppel, Sommereple, and Trollskogen. Linked to these core areas are spacious common areas and specialized rooms such as a music room, arts and crafts room, construction room, water playroom, and a gross motor skills room. In our kindergarten, the youngest children have their nap time on mattresses, supervised by dedicated staff ensuring their safety while they rest.
Child Participation in Play and Learning
At Sammen Fantoft kindergarten, we emphasize child participation in their daily routines. It's about experiencing belonging, being a participant, and having influence within the child group. Belonging primarily revolves around a sense of identity in relation to others. Here, children are greeted by adults who recognize and celebrate their achievements, from scaling a slope for the first time to completing a puzzle, who share smiles and laughter, and provide comfort during challenging times.
Meals in the kindergarten
Children in our kindergarten are provided with lunch and an afternoon snack daily. These meals comprise fruits, vegetables, oat porridge, other warm meals, homemade bread/rolls, eggs, homemade jams, and fish. They are also served milk during these meals. We value the experience of children participating in cooking, emphasizing the joy of food.
Parents contribute 350 kr towards meal expenses monthly.
