The De Curtis Nursery School welcomes girls and boys between 3 and 6 years old divided into four sections located on a single floor.

Each section is made up of a maximum of 25 girls and boys and has two reference educators.

In our school, three sections are "heterogeneous", that is, made up of girls and boys aged 3, 4 and 5.

Each section has its own dedicated space.

In addition to the sections, girls and boys access various educational experiences in the common areas of the service: lounge, laboratories/ateliers, library/motor space, garden.

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 school spaces.

Lunch is provided by Milano Ristorazione which manages its transport and daily delivery.

The section is the privileged place of emotional and relational reference in which girls and boys acquire safety and develop autonomy. It is designed for and with children and is divided into specific and diversified spaces where girls and boys play, discover and experiment together with peers and educators.


Our four sections are called Stone, Wood, Sand and Shells.
Each section directly overlooks the school garden and the common room.
In the section there is a space dedicated to rest/relaxation for girls and boys.

Exploring the "outside", be it a courtyard, the school garden or a neighborhood street, means getting closer and exploring the cycle of life and the seasons, researching nature, gradually getting to know the world we live in, to understand it and learn to take care of it.
In the school there is a garden which can be accessed directly from each section.
