Homelike sports-oriented daycare centre in Lepola

Sports-oriented daycare centre Kurkiaura started its operation in the peaceful Lepola area in August 2017. Our spacious and bright facilities encourage energetic activities, and there is plenty of space to run and bustle about. We provide high-quality child-centred early childhood and pre-primary education for children aged 0–6 years.

Diverse joy of exercise

Our objective is to help children find the joy of exercise and adopt a sporty lifestyle. The sports-orientation is implemented in the daycare centre’s everyday operation through trips, daily yard games, weekly musical movement activities and instructed exercise. We also provide the children with opportunities to try various sports, such as swimming, junior wrestling and cycling.

Versatile activities in compliance with the National Core Curriculum for Early Childhood Education and Care

The daycare centre’s operation naturally includes also other versatile activities, such as singing, drama, handicraft and painting, not to forget sufficient daily rest. Everyday pedagogy is part of every moment of our operation. It is present in pausing to wonder things together; counting peas in the salad bowl or experimenting with colours when painting. We value each unhurried moment we get to spend conversating, playing or just being silly while exploring the world together.
