Introduction/specifics

Welcome to the Salmdorf Kindergarten

We are the smallest facility in the municipality of Haar in a terraced corner house with a license for 17 children. We are three teachers who want to experience a lot with your children in a family atmosphere. The kindergarten is located in a quiet, secluded residential area with nice neighbors and hardly any traffic.

The proximity to nature, with a direct location at the Buga, is unique here and invites you to take a few walks in any weather. In summer right by the lake and in winter right by the toboggan run. Our fenced-in playground is just around the corner.

Open day will take place on 19.02.2024 from 3 pm to 6 pm.

Rooms

Small house tour

When you enter our kindergarten, you will immediately find yourself in our small hallway. From there you go right into the kitchen, left into the toilet and straight ahead into the group room where we play, do handicrafts, make music and eat.

In the basement is our checkroom, a toilet, a small workshop/painting room and a gym which is also used as a bedroom.

 On the upper floor of the house we have a playroom with a play kitchen, dolls, dressing-up boxes and a reading corner as well as a bathroom with changing facilities and the office.

Outdoor Facilities

The way out.

Our only drawback, our own garden. As we are housed in a terraced corner house, space is limited. It consists of a fence all around and paving stones. There are a few vehicles, water toys and chalks on offer. 

Fortunately, we have a fenced playground (sandpit, climbing frame, swings) with an adjacent football field, right nearby.

Daily Schedule

This is what our day looks like

Our doors open at 7:30 a.m. for the early risers.

If all the children are with us by 8:30 a.m., we start the day together with a snack that we have lovingly prepared. We then welcome the day together with singing, music, circle games, conversations, etc.

After the morning circle, there are open activities such as arts and crafts, painting, kneading, playing all over the house, as well as specific activities and preschool. 

Now we have had enough work and it is time to get some fresh air on a walk or in the playground.

At 12 noon we eat lunch together, after which some children go to sleep or have a rest period. 

At 2:15 p.m., clean-up time/wake-up time begins, followed by putting on shoes and clothes ready for pick-up. Until pick-up, there is fruit and vegetables with a picture book/riddles etc.

Pick-up time is between 2:30 and 2:55 pm. At 3 p.m. we close our doors again and look forward to a new day with all the children and parents.

Food

When hunger strikes ;)

We provide full board in the house. This means a shared snack for everyone, lovingly prepared by us. Whether it's cereal day, egg day, sweet day or another treat day, fruit and vegetables are of course a must.

Our own community kindergarten kitchen prepares warm meals for us and we then enjoy sitting together at lunchtime and look forward to a good meal with dessert.

Drinks are of course not to be forgotten. The children have their own drinking bottles with water, which they have access to throughout the day. We also provide unsweetened teas, cocoa and sometimes diluted fruit juices.

Cooperations

If necessary and with the agreement of the parents, we will contact the appropriate persons in order to be able to accompany and support your child well.

Teamwork with school

Cooperation with the school

We are in regular contact with the schools in Haar to ensure that our pre-school children get off to a good start at school.

The schools usually invite us to a taster day or small festivities. This gives the children a first impression of school life and allows them to get to know the school building.

Teamwork with parents

Dear parents,

We are a family-supporting and family-supplementing institution for upbringing and education. Cooperation with you is very important to us.

We offer

• once a year a scheduled parent meeting
• Door-to-door talks are possible at any time
• Telephone consultation possible from 10 a.m.
• notices on our door
• You will receive a weekly menu by e-mail
• Parents' evening - At the beginning of a new kindergarten year, the parents' council is elected

It is our great wish that you approach us with any concerns and that we find a solution together.

News

We warmly welcome you to our open day on 19.02.2024 between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m.

We look forward to meeting you!

Projects

We promote several areas with our project work. These are action orientation, experiential learning, self-activity, closeness to life and co-determination with holistic skills development. We adapt this to the respective age group in our small house. This means that more or fewer projects take place depending on age.

Holiday Care

Time out and relaxation from everyday life

During the vacations, there is generally no program with the children, so that all children can go on vacation with their families with peace of mind. So nobody misses out on anything. After the vacations, the program resumes with a new theme.

We are closed for three weeks in the summer. We close for two weeks during the Christmas vacations. Further closing days will be announced in good time.

Overview

We warmly welcome all those who meet these criteria

• We accept all children between the ages of 2.5 and school entry who live in the municipality of Haar.
• Priority is given to siblings.
• The children need adequate measles protection.
• Newly arrived pre-school children
