Nursery School and Pre-School

It is in the first years of life that the richest and most important learning takes place. These are the ones that will accompany us for life and will play an important role in our development.

Colégio Português has structured a space capable of receiving children from the acquisition of walking until they enter a new Cycle – Nursery School and Pre-School.

Located in a privileged space, both architecturally and geographically, and relying on a specialised and experienced group of teachers, auxiliary and support staff, the College is able to provide the right conditions for a welcoming and pleasant atmosphere, while providing the necessary learning moments.

With great concern in the knowledge of our origins and in the preparation for the future and always having in mind the objectives we propose to achieve “Portuguese Education for the Universality of Behaviour”, we maintain a climate of cultural openness providing permanent contact with exhibitions, museums, theatres, cinemas, as well as other activities of cultural interest. We impose a secure environment while opening our doors to a wide range of opportunities provided by specialist teachers in the areas of music, languages and motor activities.

Thus, all educational activity in pre-school has as reference the Curricular Guidelines for Pre-School Education. These define the general pedagogical and organisational principles to support the early childhood educator in making decisions on the educational process to be developed with children.

Hence, we do not forget that pre-school education is the first stage of basic education in the process of lifelong education.
