At Bergatrollet, safety and fun are the basis for learning. We want to stimulate the children's linguistic and communicative development, their mathematical development, their creativity and their interest in nature and the environment. We take advantage of the children's curiosity and provide choices for children's play and imagination. Bergatrollet Preschool is located in Tomtebo and has six departments where children play and learn in age-appropriate groups. The departments are adapted to the children's maturity and interests both in terms of environment and activities. The youngest children are in Bäcken, Stubben, Berget and Mossan, and the oldest children are in Trädet and Stenen. At Bergatrollet we work to create challenging and inspiring environments for learning both indoors and outdoors. We are close to nature and go on regular excursions in Carlslidsskogen or in the area around Nydalasjön. The children get to explore, discover, learn and have positive experiences of our nature. The children face increasing challenges, both in the environment and in activities, and meet many peers. The visibility and accessibility of the material encourages interaction with others, where the challenge is an important part of the children's development and learning.
