International Preschool of Gdansk

☀️ Summer is on its way! 🌻

As part of unit “Seasons and Weather”, Inventors are exploring the signs of summer – noticing changes in nature, observing the weather, and discovering how this season affects the world around us 🌤️🕶️

The first group of creators stepped into the world of shadow theatre today! ✨🎭

Using different shapes, props, and plenty of imagination, the children created and performed their own unique stories. It was a wonderful opportunity to develop creativity, storytelling skills, and confidence while having lots of fun.

We can't wait to see what the next groups will create! 🌟

With the completion of our PYP unit “Art Around Us”, our Inventors have created their own Art Gallery ✨🎨

We warmly invite parents to visit the exhibition in the Recreation Room and explore the artworks together with your children. Let them be your guides – they will proudly show you their work and share the ideas behind each piece.

The Art Gallery will be open until the end of this week.

Another Family Day Picnic is behind us – and what a wonderful day it was! ✨

A huge thank you to all our families for joining us, bringing delicious food, and creating that special community feeling that makes these moments so memorable 💛

One of the highlights of the day was a beautiful performance by our Creators, Inventors, and Nursery group – they sang, danced, and performed with colourful scarves, creating a truly special moment 🎶✨

This year, we also added some extra surprises – activity stations like mud kitchen, ice investigation, face painting, treasure hunt, nature collage, and nuts & bolts workshop 🔍🌿

We gathered around the campfire, enjoyed delicious sausages 🌭, and took part in the sack race – a fun challenge for children and parents alike. Thank you for joining 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

It was truly one of the highlights of this year – full of laughter, creativity, and the wonderful IPG community spirit ❤️

Rolling, counting, and discovering numbers together 🎲➕

Creators took turns rolling the dice, adding the numbers, and finding them on the board. Through play, teamwork, and a little friendly competition, they practiced their math skills while having lots of fun 👏✨

✨ Our new Unit – Theatre has begun!

The children have been exploring the magical world of shadow theatre, discovering how performers can create stories and images using only their bodies, hands, and simple props.

We watched how shadows can transform into powerful ways of storytelling and expression – and then the children tried it themselves. From playful hand shapes to imaginative characters like dogs, cats, snails, jellyfish, rocks, and snakes, they experimented, created, and laughed along the way.

It was a creative and engaging experience that supported imagination, self-expression, and confidence through play.

Every year, IPG proudly joins the citywide campaign Rowerowy Maj 🚲✨

Our Creators filled the preschool yard with energy and joy – riding bicycles and scooters, sharing smiles, and enjoying active play together 😊

A beautiful reminder of how fun movement can be!

P.S. Safety always comes first – children can use bicycles and scooters only with a helmet 💛

🎨✨ As part of the PYP unit “Me as an Artist,” our Inventors explored creativity through their final painting project.

This activity gave the children a chance for artistic self-expression while developing imagination, confidence, fine motor skills, and creativity. Each painting was unique - just like the little artist behind it 💛🖌️
