Burgweinting's daycare center in the final for the German Kita Prize-a reason to celebrate!

Regensburg, Deutschland - In Burgweinting, work is done with a grip: The municipal daycare center has qualified for the German Kita Prize with great commitment and commitment and is in the final. Over 600 institutions have applied for this renowned price, and the Burweintinger facility has made it to the last eight. One reason for joy for the daycare manager Martina Scheuchl, who appreciates the hard work of the team and is excited about the decision in autumn. The competitors show how diverse early childhood education is in Germany.

But what makes the Burgweinting daycare center so special? Two experts from the daycare prize visited the facility and examined the pedagogical work in the various workshops. It is not just about the loving care of the children, but also that they are promoted by open workshop work according to their own interests and needs. These undisturbed situations allow the specialists to observe how the children interact.

The four quality dimensions

A defined rating matrix is used for the assessment of the daycare centers, which includes the basic criteria of quality in early childhood education. These dimensions are: child orientation, social space orientation, learning organization and participation. In the case of child orientation, care is taken to ensure that the needs and living environments of the children are in the foreground. Participation means that children and parents are actively involved in everyday life. This brings a breath of fresh air to the educational landscape and ensures a lively daycare culture.

The experts also see how well the facility in their social environment is networked. Social space orientation plays an important role here. Because the more the daycare acts as part of the community, the more the children benefit. The learning organization is also considered. Here it is evaluated how the team continuously works on the further development of the quality and accepts new challenges.

a long way to excellence

The pedagogical development of the Burgweinging daycare center has gone through creativity for over 30 years. The concept has steadily developed and adapted over the years. Examples such as the lunch buffet, the natural group and the popular star choir show how diverse the offer is. It is more than just a care - education with heart and mind is lived here.

However, it is not just the work in the daycare center. Talks with children, parents, the sponsor and the staff are also held in order to gain a comprehensive impression of the quality of the facility. The final decision on the winners of the German Kita Prize is made in autumn, and the award ceremony itself will take place at the end of November. The price endowed with 110,000 euros honors the commitment and outstanding achievements in early childhood education.

As the German Children's and Youth Foundation describes, the price is a way to appreciate the quality in daycare centers and to improve. The criteria for the different categories are carefully thought out and promote facilities that are exemplary committed in the different fields. Further information and resources on the application process can be found on the website of the German Kita Prize. Only one thing is certain: the children in Burgweinting benefit from this extraordinary commitment in any case.
