Our school leads the children to learn as much as possible the all-important personal skills needed in our everyday lives. We teach them how to be independent, how to communicate well and express their own opinion, and how to communicate with a person with a different opinion. The children are involved in everyday school life. Through role play, they experience various occupatuions in practice (such as chefs, fire-fighters, doctors, etc), using all the senses to remember them well. They are also involved in creating the rules. We emphasise natural relationships between the teachers and children to feel secure and enjoyable.
The school programme is divided into the seven areas mentioned above. A part of each is included in everyday activities.
Daily routine flexibly responds to the current needs of children, extraordinary events, weather, etc.

Children grow up and develop in a multicultural and friendly environment. They receive a quality education in the English language. Nutitious catering, a wide range of after-school clubs, extracurricular activities and service to the local and international community in the context of an intercultural environment are parts of our daily school life.
Our professional cooking team, led by the chief cook, Tomáš Neuvirt, prepares and serves lunches in the comfortable dining room in the PORG gymnazium building.
Snacks are served in kindergarten.
Children in kindergarten must have their meals registered for the day of their stay. Children are not allowed to bring their own food or drinks to kindergarten.
The Menu is available at www.strava.cz.
