Asilo Il Castello

Il Castello School of Intelligent Thought

“Arriving at one point is the starting point for another”.

J. Dewey

The pedagogue J. Dewey believed that reaching a milestone or an objective is not the end but the beginning of a new phase or a new challenge. For us, a child’s growth is a continuous journey, made of stages, of new and exciting departures. We can’t wait to growth together with our little students!

Who we are

Il Castello is a place of cognitive and emotional growth: here, children are given the chance to develop original, free, personal, and creative thoughts. The orientation of our education method favors a context built on teaching, nature, innovation, and social life where the children are the only protagonists, in a school without doors or windows, projected into a world made of discovery, curiosity, knowledge, autonomy, imagination, and competence.

Our courses

Our courses and workshops, exciting and fun, are designed to encourage the spontaneity and cooperation that children need in order to reach, from an early age, the freedom and autonomy in which we strongly believe. We will teach them to think and to slow down: the vegetable garden, the garden, and the precious botany workshops will become places of meditation, connection, exchange, and observation, fostering group relationships.

Nursery

The NURSERY section was created to provide even the very youngest with an educational process based on the development of cognitive skills as well as social and relational abilities, helping to enrich, support, and nurture the complex and extraordinary experience of childhood.

Kindgarden

Our KINDERGARDEN has the fundamental goal of promoting the gradual development of identity, independence, social skills, and the ability to live together within a community. Each child contributes to a strong acquisition of the concept of citizenship

Services

In addition to the educational offering, we provide families with a series of services designed to accompany children’s growth and support their daily lives. Each activity is designed to combine educational quality, care, and attention to the needs of each student.

Our Philosophy

At the heart of our philosophy is surely the physical and inner well-being of the child, a synonym of health growth. Creating environments where our little ones feel at ease, understood, and above all listened to has always been our priority.
