News of the Preschool
It has been a long and winding road but we are getting closer to our goal!
We still do not have the final letter from the kommune that confirms the approval for the house that we found for the preschool. However, we want to show them that we are more than ready to get going with the project so we will take the risk and announce our opening date:
17 August 2011!
The only thing we can say now about the house is that it is located in Valby, close to Carlsberg. We will confirm the exact address once the kommune has officially approved it all.
It is a very nice villa at the end of a quiet street, where there is very little traffic and direct access to a bicycle path. It is 10 minutes on foot from Valby station, with easy access by bus on Valby Langgade.
We will have to do quite a few changes inside the house and in the garden and this might take a few months but the result will be so nice that I am sure the children will feel as if it is their second home.
Some of the works include an interior ventilation system, a fire escape route, children's toilets, a wheelchair access through an outdoor platform, a new fence in the garden and the list goes on!
We are also in full fundraising mode! We are approaching companies for sponsorship and applying to local funds for financial support for the building requirements. We are also developing our support association, Montessori Støtteforening, to help us promote the Montessori method throughout Denmark. Please show your support by becoming a member :-)
