Circle of Sun

Welcome to Circle of Sun

Inspired by Nature, Montessori and Waldorf

Holistic Education on a Tropical Island

We welcome children from 3 to 5 years old to our homely and environmentally friendly KINDERGARTEN & PLAYGROUND , where we provide a safe and nurturing environment for children with lots of educational and fun activities, as well as healthy vegetarian meals throughout the day. We are open Monday to Friday from 9.30 to 15.30.

“The goal of early childhood education should be to activate the child's own natural desire to learn."

Maria Montissori
“The fundamental help in development, especially with little children of 3 years of age, is not to interfere. Interference stops activity and stops concentration."

The Child, Society and the World (Unpublished Speeches and Writing)
“Education is the best weapon for peace.”

Let's Go

“We've tried most of the nurseries on the island, and kids loved Circle of Sun the most! You can feel that the place was created with love and passion! All the details, everything is considered for the kids development and comfort. The atmosphere in the nursery is very warm, loving and caring. Each kid gets attention, support and guidance.”

“Our son has been in this little family school nested in a beautiful jungle garden for 7 months now and he likes it so much. My son has always been cared for with a lot of love, kindness and respect. This kindergarten definitely deserves to be better known.”

Kids learning gardening skills at Circle of Sun.

“My son has been attending this garden for a year and refuses to go anywhere else. He goes there every morning with joy, and sometimes I have trouble getting him to leave in the evening. The biggest accomplishment is that he has learned English from scratch and is even beginning to speak it. The kindergarten provides a good vegetarian and varied diet, which is important to me. My son has started trying new foods that he previously refused to eat at home, such as mung bean sprouts and hummus. It's heartwarming to hear his stories about what he's learning while playing. Circle of Sun is one and only Love.”
