A school built around curiosity

Piccoli began with a simple intention: to create a warm preschool where children can explore freely, form their own ideas, and express what they discover in many different ways.

Since 2022, the school has shaped its learning around the Reggio Emilia philosophy. We see every child as capable, creative, and already full of questions about the world.

Teachers do not stand apart from the learning. They listen, observe, document, and walk beside the children as guides and co-learners, while each classroom becomes a thoughtful environment that invites wonder.

What we believe

Education at Piccoli is not about rushing children forward. It is about noticing their discoveries, giving them language for their thinking, and building the confidence to keep learning.

Children as explorers

Children learn through active discovery, real experiences, thoughtful questions, and the freedom to test their ideas.

A hundred languages

Art, music, movement, storytelling, construction, play, and conversation all become valid ways for children to express thinking.

Community and relationships

Children, families, and educators are connected partners. Trust and belonging are part of the curriculum.

Diversity and belonging

We value local traditions and global perspectives, helping children grow empathy, openness, and respect.

01

Teachers listen first

Educators observe how children think, speak, build, move, and solve problems, then shape learning invitations around those discoveries.

02

The environment teaches

Rooms are arranged with natural materials, light, plants, open-ended tools, and calm spaces that encourage exploration.

03

Families are part of the story

Parents are welcomed as partners because children's confidence grows when school and home understand one another.
