Sport

Sport is optional and runs twice a week for the middle, older and oldest groups, led by a qualified PE teacher. Sessions cover every kind of natural movement: running, jumping, crawling, pulling, climbing and basic shaping exercises suited to the children's age. There are also ball games, relay races, agility courses and apparatus work.

Sport is organised in cooperation with the sports society “Arena NS”.

Health

Preventive health care

In cooperation with the Novi Sad Health Centre, our kindergarten is visited once a month by paediatrician Dr Galina Gavanski, who looks out for any infectious illness among the children and works to prevent it spreading.

The children are used to her by now and simply adore her.
