Our bilingual nursery and kindergarten Joki Johanneskirchen / Bogenhausen

Overview

Joki Johanneskirchen is located on the ground and first floor of a small office and shopping complex with a chemist, bakery, etc. The day care centre can be reached conveniently by public transport (S8 train stop). The tasteful decoration and large cloakroom area contribute to the special atmosphere. All rooms are modern, bright and are furnished to a high standard. Every group has its own group room and a separate sleeping room, which may also be used as a multi-purpose room. We also have a small gym in which we can play movement and dancing games.

All group- and sleeping rooms face the back of the building, with a view of the trees that surround our generous outdoor space of approximately 1000 square meters. The playground with play equipment suitable for young children and sandpits is used exclusively by Joki. The children can also experience nature first-hand in our very own adventure grove. We often explore the surrounding playgrounds and fields on our outings.

Bilingual care from the beginning: Alongside our German speaking educators, each group will usually have an English native speaker who introduces the children to their language and culture playfully through conversation and games. Using the immersion method, our native speakers converse with the children solely in their native language. The aim is not to teach the children the language in a school-like way, but rather that they come into contact with the foreign language naturally, for example by singing songs and playing games.

Our chef has received intensive training on the special nutritional needs of young children. All meals are prepared freshly each day to ensure they are appropriate for the age of the children. Therefore, it is not necessary to bring any snacks to the day care centre. The menu can also be adjusted for children with allergies.

It goes without saying that the nursery children at Johanneskirchen have priority in receiving a kindergarten place here, so that the children experience the whole of their early years education in the same day care centre and with the same values. This also allows friendships with other children, parents and educators to develop.

Bilingual groups

Joki has a very good staff to child ratio. In each group 3-4 educators look after the children in the nursery and the kindergarten.

The aim is not to teach the children the language in a school-like way, but rather that they come into contact with the foreign language naturally, for example by singing songs and playing games.

This promotes intercultural competence in the children, which prepares them for a globalised world. Additionally, their minds will be trained according to well-founded scientific findings without any pressure of a particularly intensive form. A high mental flexibility results all the more, the earlier and more consistently the child finds itself in a multilingual environment. You can find further information at www.fmks-online.de.
