Spring School (før-skole børn)

Children that are to start school in August 2024 have the opportunity to jump start in the Spring School (før-skole) from the 1st April 2024.

Spring school is Lolland International School’s early school start program, otherwise known as ‘førskole’ in Danish. It runs from the 2nd April. The aim for Spring School is to give the children the best possible start to school by familiarising them with their new school setting, the people, and routines so they are ready for Grade 0 in August 2024. When children know and understand their surroundings, it gives them security and a sense of belonging.

Moving from day care/kindergarten/børnehave is a big step. The children will go from being the oldest back to being the youngest; they will move from an environment where they mostly get free choice of activities into one with more structure. In addition, our school is a bilingual school, so large portions of the day will be in Danish, English or both, and this could be something new. There will be a lot of new things to see and do, and change can be difficult, so we want to make this transition as smooth as possible.
