Our ECEC centre
Kastelli ECEC centre is a culturally and historically valuable building built as an elementary school in 1890. In 1957, the first municipal kindergarten in Oulu started there.
Our ECEC centre is located near the River Oulujoki in a scenic location in Ranta-Kastelli. There are a lot of old trees and other vegetation in the yard. The yard is large, it goes around the whole house and is entirely used by children.
Mission statement
This is a machine translation.
Positive interaction is an important guiding value in our operations. Positivity and flexibility play a key role in everyday life. We collaborate a lot between groups. Adults know all the children in kindergarten.
Our focus areas are positive pedagogy, sustainable future (green flag action) and STEAM pedagogy.
In our operations, we follow the national early childhood education plan and the City of Oulu's early childhood education plan.
