For children from three to five years old we open a mixed age class kindergarten. In the event of a large overhang of demand, we will consider opening an additional playgroup for this age cohort.
For older children (i.e. children who will be 5 years old by 31.8.2026) then we are opening a preschool class and a prep class. The preparatory class is intended primarily for children who have a deferment and a recommendation from the pedagogical-psychological counselling centre for inclusion in the preparatory class. However, the curriculum and daily routine is the same as the preschool class.. The capacity of the age-mixed and preschool classes is 16 children, the preparatory class 15.
Enrolments will take place on 25 or 26 March 2026 from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm in the premises of the VIA Beroun kindergarten. Children do not participate in the registration.
