Location
With the mountain as a backdrop and the Haugesund city kindergarten nearby, exciting experiences in both nature and culture are always just a short distance away. The kindergarten is conveniently located near Vardafjell and Haugaland High School, with close proximity to Solvang, Sørhaug, NordreBydel, Lillesund, and Rossabø. Ample parking outside the kindergarten makes the daily drop-offs and pick-ups easier for parents.
Sections
Our kindergarten comprises four sections. Children are grouped into smaller age-specific clusters, with dedicated educators overseeing them throughout the day. Here, children encounter the same staff in their section every day. This provides consistency and a sense of security for the child and also eases communication between home and the kindergarten.
In our kindergarten, the youngest ones sleep comfortably on mattresses while a staff member stays on watch, ensuring safety.
"Snail and Worm Spot"
At Sammen Vardafjell kindergarten, we emphasize active outdoor activities. Besides our designated "snail and worm spot", we have a field, fruit orchard, lavvo (traditional Sami tent), bonfire spot, camp kitchen, and fantastic trees to climb. We also indulge in short walks, immerse ourselves in cultural activities, and much more!
Meals at the kindergarten
Children in our kindergarten are served all their meals here. We've adopted a unique approach to mealtime compared to most kindergartens. We have a joint breakfast at 9 am, consisting of slices of bread/crispbread with healthy toppings. An 11 am snack is primarily fruits. At 1 pm, we serve the main meal, which varies between bread slices or crispbread with diverse, healthy toppings, nutritious lunch meals, fresh rolls, and oat porridge.
Parents are charged a monthly fee of 400kr.
