Kindergarten & Pre School
A-Z International Centre for Children aims to provide the highest possible quality of English-language care to pre-school aged children (2.5-6yrs) in Budapest. Their goal is to provide a complete environment of care that meets each child's physical, emotional, and other developmental needs. Centre Location/Facilities: The prime location is in the hills of Buda's 12th district, close to Istenhegyi Út and easily accessible by public transport (bus 21). There is a children's library and gymnasium, and also a 'Parent's Place' set aside for the adults. Outside of the building there is a large and pleasant garden/playground area, allowing children to really enjoy some extensive outdoor explorations.
The aims of their programme are to provide a wide range of educational activities in a relaxed, secure atmosphere; to promote social and personal skills within the group situation; to foster self confidence and self awareness in this transition between the family unit and school, and to encourage language development as each child explores and orders his environment. While English speaking children will be able to move about in a familiar situation, the Hungarians will be absorbing, rather than learning a second language. Since Hungarian culture is very much present in the daily activities, the Hungarian children are prepared for moving up to primary school education in Hungary. At the same time, the offspring of an English speaking family might profit from mixing with this culture by learning some simple Hungarian rhymes and games.
Happy Kids International Kindergarten aims to synthesize the best practices from a range of national educational systems, balanced by its own unique multicultural experience to create a day care and learning environment of excellence for children in the age range 2–7 years.
