Personal and Social Awareness
At Mikros Maestros Nursery School, we focus on fostering children’s development on both a personal and social level.
On a personal level, children learn to recognize themselves and the adults in their environment, acknowledge their skills and abilities, develop a positive self-image, build confidence, and learn to care for themselves independently. At the same time, they are introduced to the learning process for the first time, where we guide them to remain open to new experiences and knowledge.
On a social level, we teach the children of Mikros Maestros how to interact with their peers and how to positively engage with the adults in their environment. They learn to help, share, and collaborate. In parallel, they shape their social identity through friendships and communication. We instill in them values such as respect, equality, diversity, individuality, rights, and rules, using age-appropriate techniques.
Finally, through daily routines, children develop the ability to recognize boundaries and understand the consequences of their own and others’ behavior, fostering awareness that helps prevent the repetition of boundary violations.
