The Merloni (Arcobaleno) nursery school welcomes girls and boys aged between 13 and 36 months and is spread over a single ground floor where there is also a nursery school.

The section is organized in such a way as to accommodate a group of "medium-large" children (children between 13 and 36 months) in a balanced number and responsive to the specific needs of the age group.

In addition to the section, girls and boys access various educational experiences in the common areas of the nursery: laboratory space, library/reading space, garden.

The nursery does not have an internal kitchen and lunch is provided by Milano Ristorazione which manages its transport and daily delivery. Lunch is administered by the educational staff who accompanies girls and boys on their journey of self-knowledge and sensorial experimentation.

The educational college, coordinated by the Manager, is responsible for the planning and implementation of the educational paths promoted during the year. In the presence of girls or boys with disabilities, the presence of educational support staff is expected.

The auxiliary staff ensures the care and cleaning of the spaces.

The section represents the space where girls and boys spend the moments of greatest emotional involvement during the educational day: educators take care of girls and boys and support their growth path through the design of spaces and the setting up of experiences educational.

Our nursery has a single section which is divided into three rooms:

  • Sun room: symbolic game, reading and color and manipulation workshop;
  • Nuvole room: decanting and micro decanting, "laboratoriando" (activities with recycled materials) and oculo-manual and fine motor activities;
  • Stars room: motor activity, heuristic game and space dedicated to rest.

In the section there is a space for lunch and a space for care and hygiene.

The educators, in preparing these spaces and these moments, guarantee an organization of the educational day that is careful to encourage the child's actions, the exploration of spaces and materials and self-care, with the presence and constant accompaniment of the adult.

The section directly overlooks the garden.

«Going out», living in larger spaces than the section space, gradually exploring the garden or courtyard means expanding the possibilities of discovery and experimentation and offering gradually more articulated and complex educational paths.

In the nursery there is a garden equipped with tricycles, slides, motor games and tubs for pouring games and water games.
