About this care

AI
Peuterspeelzaal de Ark Start is located in the multifunctional centre De Magneet at De Dintel 2 in Veghel. We are a pre-school playgroup for children aged 2 years and 3 months to 4 years and are part of Verdi Start, the childcare organisation of Stichting Verdi Onderwijs. In our homely groups we work with a permanent carer and a permanent assistant so that your child always sees familiar faces. We provide pre-school education (VVE), in which we work playfully on language, numeracy and social skills. The playroom is set up with different corners such as a construction corner, a home corner and a reading corner. We use themes that connect to the toddler's world of experience. Outside we have a safe playground where the children can romp and explore. We work with horizontal groups, where children of the same age play and learn together. Parents can opt for half-day or full-day care.
