Our bilingual nursery school and kindergarten Joki Obermenzing

Overview

Joki Obermenzing can be found in a quiet residential area close to the canal of Nymphenburg Castle. The modern house was built exactly to our specifications. The rooms of our day care centre are bright, spacious and furnished to a high standard. Each group has its own room and a separate sleeping room which can also be used for other activities. In the basement there is also a large multi-purpose room which we use for dance and movement games, parties or simply to run around in.

Our lovely garden with a variety of play equipment and sandpits is used exclusively by us. The children can make lots of discoveries about nature in this 500 square metre plot. On our outings we can explore the nearby views, the area around the castle canal and the nearby park of Nymphenburg Castle.

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.

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.
