Our story

International Countryside Preschool is founded on the belief that learning should be an exciting and enriching journey that begins in the natural world. Located in the breathtaking Divoka Sarka park, our preschool blends the beauty of nature with the power of the International curriculum. Our dedicated team of educators creates a nurturing environment where children can explore their creativity, develop critical thinking skills, and cultivate a lifelong love of learning. We are passionate about inspiring our students to become global citizens who are ready to make a positive impact on the world.

Our beliefs

Surrounding countryside
Our school is located in a beautiful natural setting. Children have plenty of opportunities to explore the natural world, from the forest and meadows to the river and pond.

The classrooms offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Children can enjoy the beauty of nature while they learn.

Ministry of Education
Countryside School nursery is not just any preschool, it is a Ministry of Education-approved preschool. 

Animals and farming

We have our own farm, where children can learn about animals and basic gardening. We have a variety of animals, including ponies, chickens, rabbits and cows.  We are planning to expand our animal population in the future.

Variety of healthy and delicious meals

We believe that healthy eating is important for children's development. We offer a variety of healthy and delicious meals, prepared with fresh, local ingredients. We are part of the Czech Healthy School program, which is based on Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution project.

Stimulating environment
We use the Jolly Phonics program to teach children English. This program is fun and effective, and it helps children learn to read and write quickly and easily.

Our preschool provides a stimulating environment where children can naturally acquire language skills through fun, interactive activities. We use engaging methods that spark curiosity and encourage communication.

We hope you will come and visit us. We would be delighted to show you around our school and answer any questions you may have.

Accessible by car

Our kindergarten will provide you with a permit to drive through the Divoká Šárka Nature Reserve so you can get to the kindergarten comfortably.

Enough parking for everyone

Nursery building

Even though Countryside School provides a stimulating environment, we believe that it's important for children to be involved in their community and learn about the world around them. That's why we regularly participate in a variety of community events, such as:

Farma ve městě: This event brings a petting zoo and other farm-related activities to the city, and not only our students had a blast interacting with the animals and learning about farm life as the event was at the weekend we welcomed over 100 people at our school.

Farmářské trhy Kulaťák:  We provided kids corner at the Kulaťák Farmers Market to support local farmers and people who came to buy some local products. We brought our little piglet Ruženka and some chickens we raised from eggs. All visiters can pet them and learn more about them as we prepared some fun learning activities for children we took care of while their parents had chance to buy local fruits and vegetables, and we even got to meet some of the farmers who grew them.
 

Ukliďme Česko: We participated in the Ukliďme Česko (Let's Clean Up Czechia) campaign to help clean up our local environment. Our children learned about the importance of keeping our community clean and enjoyed working together to make a difference.
