What do children need for preschool?
-
Water bottle
They should have their own bottle that they are able to open and close. If they don't have it or forget it, they will be given bottled water for 20 CZK which must be paid the next day at the nursery office.
-
Slippers for the classroom
It is necessary to wear appropriate slippers with a full heel. Crocs or flip flops are not suitable for safety reasons. It is ideal if the child can take them off and put them on independently. If slippers are small or damaged, the nursery will inform you.
-
Clothes and footwear for outdoors
Depending on the weather and the season. Is it raining? Waterproof trousers and wellies. Cold? Warm and waterproof. Girls in dresses should have spare clothes for playing outside so they don't get their clothes dirty.
-
Spare clothes
For unexpected accidents like spills. Adjust the amount according to the child's needs. If the child is potty training, it is a good idea to bring more spare clothes. Even older children should have spare clothes as they are often working with different materials.
-
Pyjamas and sleep toys
If your child is having a nap after lunch, they should have their pyjamas and favourite sleep toy.
-
What else?
Strollers, scooters, bicycles or bicycles can be left in the school's buggy room on request.

Quality food for your children!
Catering in TETTY
We teach children proper table manners in the program. They get their morning snack between 9:30-10:00 depending on their classroom program. At 12:00 we have lunch and around 14:30 we have an afternoon snack. Weather permitting, we have lunch outside on the patio!
From August 2022 we have a new supplier who supplies us with freshly prepared and cooked food every day.
The menu is available for parents in the Twigsee app.
The supplier offers quality food, great communication and cooks only from fresh ingredients. They have an excellent rating from customers as well as from hygienists and HACCP audits, and we already have great experience with them.
The food is cooked in Hostivice near Prague and delivered in self-heating boxes that maintain the temperature of the food.
The supplier also handles diet and combined lunches, only snacks are limited. At our request, the supplier now offers fresh pastries and sourdough bread from an artisan bakery.

Services for parents
We stay active!
Extracurricular activities
Education for a healthy lifestyle:The program is designed for preschoolers from the Whales class. It tries to inform children about various risks and teach them how to avoid these. The programme is divided into blocks, which allows for systematic and gradual teaching. The use of fairy tales and stories as teaching aids helps children to better understand and identify with the topics discussed.
Extracurricular
activities
Library
Reading is crucial for the development of language skills, and in this way the kindergarten motivates children to read regularly. Offering books in different languages broadens children's horizons and prepares them for a multicultural world. Children can borrow books to take home.
Sport
These courses, such as ice skating or inline skating, are designed so that during one week of intensive training, children learn basic techniques or improve their existing skills. The courses are always led by a team of professional coaches. It is possible to rent the necessary equipment for most courses.
Groups
Each year we offer a wide range of afternoon after-school clubs for children of different ages. These include sports, science, music, education and art clubs. We make sure that the quality of the clubs and teachers is high.
Trips
The trips are designed to be as relevant as possible to the topics discussed in kindergarten, making them an attractive and educational addition to regular lessons. Information about planned trips is always available on Twigsee.
Nursery in nature
The children from the Sharks and Killer Whales class go to the nature school every year at the end of May (Monday - Friday).
University
A small technical university! Children have the opportunity to learn basic technical skills and principles through play and practice. Children will try out what it is like to be an electrician or bridge builder, learn what oil is or build their own model of a sewage treatment plant.

How does it work here?
Preschool operation

We appreciate the cooperation of parents and appreciate it if they respect this schedule for the benefit of all children to help the learning process run smoothly. By 9am, your child should be changed, greeted by classmates and ready to join the morning circle.

GLOBAL MINDED primary school
At TETTY Preschool we not only educate your children, but we are also happy to help you choose a suitable primary school. We take into account the child's learning predispositions, talents and individual needs, as well as the specifics of the whole family. It is preferable to start the process as early as possible. Around the age of 4-5, it is ideal to begin consultations and set the right trajectory for the next educational journey. If you intend to enroll your child in a challenging primary school, it is important to inform us as soon as possible. Preparing for enrollment can take several months and may involve homework. The current situation in Prague with the placement of children in quality primary schools is not easy. Therefore, thorough preparation and information is essential. We also have an important notice regarding our Global Minded Primary School. The transition from TETTY Preschool is not automatic. While we give preference to children from TETTY, the school has limited capacity. Therefore, please communicate early with the administration of both institutions regarding enrollment.
