Kosuyolu Kindergarten
Principal’s Message
 “Pre-school education covers a period of time during which a child’s physical, psychomotor, social-emotional, and cognitive and language development is largely completed and his/her personality traits are shaped. At Eyüboğlu Koşuyolu Kindergarten, which was opened in 2004 under the vision and mission of Eyüboğlu Educational Institutions, our aim is to ensure that the children spend this period in the most effective way, getting prepared for their future lives.
In order to achieve this aim, we strive to create a warm classroom environment in which the teachers and students inquire actively and the children develop to become individuals who:
- inquire,
- are competent in applying the knowledge that they have acquired through hands-on experiences to everyday life,
- are perceptive to and are able to use a second language,
- communicate effectively,
- are caring,
- are self-confident,
- are creative,
- are successful and happy.
With the physical, social and academic opportunities that our school provides, children experience the joy of learning while they have fun and develop while they learn; and thus acquire the ability to adopt different perspectives in solving the challenges that they face in life. The students and the teachers alike share the joy and excitement of exploring and discovering through inquiry, research, touching, tasting, observing, experimenting, visiting and watching.
It will be our source of pride to raise our students as self-confident, responsible, principled, tolerant individuals who are aware of their differences, are able to view occurrences from different perspectives, and are caring towards themselves, their environment and other people.
Considering the fact that education starts in the family and continues at school, we are well aware of the significance of maintaining close cooperation with the parents for the development and education of our students. We will be more than happy to have you at our school for an on-site visit during which you can take a close look at the school and receive detailed information.

 In academic year 2004-2005 Eyüboğlu Educational Institutions opened Eyüboğlu Koşuyolu Kindergarten to which 3 and 4 year old children are admitted.
The children attending Koşuyolu Kindergarten have the opportunity to lay the strong foundations for their future education under the supervision of a competent, dynamic staff while they enjoy a safe, modern and warm atmosphere in a charming building surrounded by a green environment.
Education at Eyüboğlu Kindergartens
Our aim is to raise our students to become physically, cognitively, socially and language-wise competent, self-confident and conscious individuals who inquire and investigate. In order to ensure alignment between the education offered by Eyüboğlu Kindergartens and the education offered by Eyüboğlu Çamlıca Primary School , the national curriculum is integrated with IB PYP, which provides a curricular framework that helps children to become inquiring, self-confident, conscious individuals. While developing as caring, inquiring, communicating individuals in an inquiry-based class atmosphere, the students also progress in arts and sports as they participate in numerous social activities, just as in Eyüboğlu Primary School . The students participate in field trips and visits to theaters during which they make observations and reinforce their knowledge on the topics addressed at school.
Staff
The staff of Eyüboğlu Kindergartens consists of highly qualified and experienced educators. All of the teachers are experts in their areas and are graduates of various universities’ Pre-school Education Departments. The principals, homeroom teachers and the guidance teachers are fluent in English. Apprentice teachers and students from Girls’ Vocational School assist the homeroom teachers in each classroom throughout the day. English is taught by foreign-hire teachers. In addition to teaching language, the foreign-hire teachers also cooperate with the homeroom teachers in the teaching of concepts so that the children learn those concepts in both Turkish and English. Applied courses such as IT, Art, Music, Physical Education, Drama and Swimming are offered by specialist teachers. The psychological consultants in addition to the homeroom teachers provide enormous support in ensuring that the 3-4 year old kindergarten students adapt to school as smoothly as possible. They constantly monitor students’ physical and psychological development and regularly share their collected data with the parents. The consultants also organize seminars for the parents with a view to informing and guiding them in their parenting. The parents also have the opportunity to watch live webcasts of their children at school.
Social Activities
 The children also have a chance to develop their artistic and physical abilities by participating in a variety of social activities such as games, drama, music, ballet, dancing, rhythm practices, chess, ceramic, swimming and gymnastics. For these activities, the students avail themselves of all the facilities of the Sports and Arts Complex on Eyüboğlu Çamlıca Campus.

The kids make most of the day and are well-nourished with breakfast, lunch and a mid-afternoon snack. Everyday after lunch, they sleep as long as is required for their specific age.
