A modern kindergarten in the heart of Karlín

Sokolovská Branch 110 meters from the Invalidovna metro station, Prague 8 [map]

The Sokolovská branch is located in the modern environment of Karlín, within the Futurama Business Park premises, which offers excellent accessibility, a safe background, and comfortable conditions for the daily routines of both children and parents.

Spanning an area of approximately 400 m², it creates a spacious, bright, and well-thought-out environment for three classes of children. The interiors are designed with an emphasis on safety, functionality, aesthetics, and the needs of daily education. The space supports focused work, free play, physical movement, creation, and rest – everything that preschool children need for healthy and natural development.

The branch facilities also include its own private garden, which children can access safely without the need to cross any road. The garden has undergone modifications to support environmental education, natural movement, and practical outdoor activities even better. Each class has its own large planter box where children can plant, care for flowers, and observe their growth throughout the year. The garden is planted with various flora and trees, offering space for real gardening, sensory discovery, and sandbox play.

International environment

Sokolovská is a branch where high-quality preschool education, an international environment, and an individual approach to children fully intertwine. We base our education on the Czech educational framework, which we enrich with a modern international approach, thematic teaching, and learning through personal experience. We guide children toward independence, responsibility, open communication, creativity, and healthy self-confidence.

A significant part of the daily routine is tandem teaching in both Czech and English. Both Czech and English-speaking educators operate in the classrooms, allowing children to encounter both languages naturally throughout the entire day – during play, educational activities, regular communication, and daily situations.

Alongside the educational program, we also offer children a diverse range of developmental activities, such as music education, art and creative programs, gymnastics, karate, or speech therapy support for children from three years old who require it. The school year also includes intensive one-week courses, such as skiing, ice skating, or cycling.

Older children regularly participate in field trips, cultural programs, exhibitions, and other events that broaden their horizons and connect education with the real world. They learn to navigate the standard city environment, travel by public transport, and perceive culture, nature, and society around them.

We place great emphasis on cooperation with parents. We regularly monitor the children’s development, evaluate their needs, and share specific feedback with parents. We believe that open and professional communication between the family and the kindergarten is one of the keys to ensuring that the child can develop with certainty, joy, and trust.

The Sokolovská branch is a stable, well-thought-out, and inspiring environment for children who are ready to explore the world, develop their abilities, progress in their independence, and naturally prepare for the next educational stage.

It doesn’t end with teaching

In addition to Malvína’s standard program, which consists of the Ministry of Education curriculum and our own games and exercises, we engage children in plenty of other activities:

  • ECO Art club for developing artistic skills
  • Music education
  • Gymnastics
  • Karate
  • Speech therapy for preschoolers
  • English language
  • Canistherapy

Cooperation with parents is also extremely important to us – that is when results become visible literally before your eyes. Once a month, we hold consultations between parents and educators, and additionally, we organize webinars with our special education teacher.

Fresh and quality catering

At Malvína, we believe that a quality diet is an important part of a child’s happy day. Lunches and snacks are provided for us by a verified supplier, Ekolandia, with whom we share an emphasis on freshness, variety, and a gentle approach to children’s catering.

Meals are prepared from high-quality primary ingredients, without unnecessary semi-finished products, substitutes, or genetically modified ingredients. The menu includes plenty of vegetables, fresh herbs, and a diverse range of ingredients such as buckwheat, millet, bulgur, or other nutritionally valuable side dishes.

We pay great attention to ensuring that the food is not only healthy for children but also tasty and naturally varied. The menu includes homemade spreads, fresh snacks, and baked treats prepared with children’s needs in mind.

For the youngest children, adjusting the food consistency according to the child’s age and abilities is a matter of course. Similarly, based on individual agreement and relevant reasons, we can accommodate dietary restrictions or special dietary requirements.

A hydration regime is available to children throughout the day. They have a choice of water and unsweetened tea.
