healthy growing up

kindergartens are not only places of learning, but also crucial locations for health promotion. Using movement promotion and nutritional education, a healthy environment that supports the parents' house is created in kindergarten. Experts emphasize that the creation of sufficient movement options and the preparation of healthy meals are fundamental in order to increase the well -being of the children. These measures are supported by cooperation with institutions, sports clubs and external experts, such as Gesundheits.gv.at Explained.

In addition, the mediation of hygiene measures, help in dealing with feelings and relaxation exercises plays an important role in the everyday life of children. A continuous review and improvement of these fields of action is crucial so that the smallest can grow up as best as possible. Among other things, social behavior that is essential for later development is promoted.

The award of the Ferlacher kindergarten stands not only for coherent projects and commitment, but also for a comprehensive concept that aims to improve living and working conditions. The focus is on healthy living environments in which health -relevant attitudes and behaviors are encouraged.
