Pre-Primary Class

Pre-primary year is a special time in a child‘s life: he or she is actively exploring the world, learning to be independent and preparing for the next important stage of life, school. The pre-primary classroom at Saulės Gojus is a place where children are encouraged to create, wonder and discover all day long, and where the educational process takes place in a comfortable and supportive environment This preparation journey makes the anticipation of school even more joyful!

Our pre-primary class in Vilnius gives children the opportunity to learn through personal experience, encouraging their natural curiosity and self-expression. It‘s fun for the children, but from an adult‘s perspective, it‘s easy to see that we use modern educational methods which develop children’s social, emotional and cognitive skills. We want every child to feel valued, heard and to take their first academic steps with confidence in themselves and the world around them.

We encourage children to explore their environment and learn through hands-on activities such as art projects, sensory games, experiments and creative activities. Our aim is not only to impart academic knowledge, but also to develop an inquisitive and self-confident personality ready for school.

Pre-school education in Vilnius: what makes it special at Saulės Gojus School?

• Bilingual education: based on the principle of “one person – one language”, teachers speaking only Lithuanian and only English interact with the children and give classes alternately. This provides consistency and creates an immersive language experience that successfully enhances children‘s foreign language skills.
• Additional activities: the pre- primary curriculum is enriched with additional activities that are included in the daily timetable, such as Aikido, Information Technology, Music and Art.
• Individual attention to each child allows us to better understand his/her needs and develop his/her personal strengths.
• Committed teachers not only develop children‘s academic skills, but also help them develop independence, critical thinking and emotional resilience.
• Focus on emotional well-being: we help children recognise, understand and handle their emotions, develop empathy and strengthen their communication skills.

Pre-primary education in Vilnius, at the Saulės Gojus school, is a comprehensive education aimed at the development of a growing personality. This is where children learn:

• To recognise and write letters, count and perform simple mathematical operations
• To express their thoughts and improve their speaking skills
• To solve a variety of problems, make decisions and work as a team
• To manage emotions, have compassion for others and build friendships with peers
• To be independent, confident and responsible, while at the same time thinking creatively, experimenting and not being afraid to make mistakes

In addition to academic knowledge, our programme focuses on physical activity, healthy habits and a responsible attitude towards our environment. Outdoor activities, movement games and creative crafts develop children‘s motor skills and stimulate their thirst for new experiences.
