GRADINITA AMICUS JUNIOR is a kindergarten providing preschool education for children aged 2 to 6, ensuring each child develops according to their age under the guidance of experienced teachers. Classrooms are organized into resource centers such as Sciences, Library, Construction, Role Play, and Art, supporting exploration, creativity, and social development. Building healthy relationships with peers and adults is a central focus of the program.

Activities are organized into three main categories: play and freely chosen activities, experiential fields, and personal development. The five experiential fields include Language and Communication, Sciences, Human Being and Society, Aesthetics and Creativity, and Psychomotor skills. Annual themes such as "Who am I?", "How do we express what we feel?", and "How is life on Earth?" guide learning and curiosity.

The kindergarten also offers extracurricular programs to support the whole child — physically, intellectually, and emotionally. Children participate in cooking, gardening, crafts, musical education, English lessons, health education, and character-building activities. Outdoor play and visits to farms, playgrounds, historical sites, and science venues are regularly organized. With up to 130 preschoolers in seven classes — Baby, Small, Medium, and Big — the school provides a diverse and inclusive environment that fosters rich educational and cultural experiences.
