How This School in Prague Rethinks Kindergarten Through Nature and Movement

Prague Morning

With its setting on the edge of Klánovický Forest in Prague-East, Unicorn School has developed a private kindergarten environment where early education is closely tied to nature, movement and individual attention.

Housed in a family villa with a garden, playground and heated swimming pool, the facility brings together structured preschool learning and a day-to-day rhythm shaped by outdoor experience.

The kindergarten and children’s group focus on small learning communities, where children are guided according to their own pace of development rather than a uniform classroom model.

Teachers with long-term experience in early childhood education work with an emphasis on stability, trust and close cooperation with parents.

A significant part of the programme takes place outside. The proximity of the forest allows for frequent walks, outdoor activities and seasonal learning, which are integrated into the daily schedule rather than treated as occasional excursions.

The approach reflects elements of forest kindergarten practice, where direct contact with nature is considered part of the learning process.

Inside, Unicorn School combines several educational frameworks. Montessori-inspired principles are used alongside Free Flow Learning and the Good Start Method®.

Development is monitored through iSophi® diagnostics, which help adjust activities to individual needs. Early numeracy is introduced through the Hejný method, complemented by language development, music, art and physical education.

English is present throughout the day and is introduced through natural interaction, games and routine communication, with the aim of building familiarity from an early age.

The school also places emphasis on healthy routines and nutrition, offering organic meals prepared for children in line with balanced dietary principles.

Unicorn School has received recognition from the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports and meets national quality standards for children’s groups. It is a member of the Association of Children’s Groups. Enrollment is open throughout the year depending on capacity, with early registration recommended.
