“My daughter Lucy was at Horizons for 6 months and she loved it there. She had a few tears in the first 2 weeks whilst settling in which is normal but then she obviously really enjoyed going and even asked if she could on the weekends! She used to go running in in the mornings without a backward glance which was lovely as it showed how much she enjoyed it. We liked the routine that she had at Horizons as we feel that children learn well when in a routine and this was obvious for example she learnt how to tidy up at home and would tell us that it was tidy up time. Lucy made friends at Horizons and would often talk about the other children in her class and her teacher even after we left Zagreb. “
“My both children have spent several wonderful years at Kindergarten Horizons. They have been surrounded with warmth and love of all personnel and their little friends. It is a place where they have felt like at home. They have learned a lot and they have been encouraged to expend their horizons in the international, multicultural environmental by very professional and enthusiastic teachers. Moreover, through fun and play they have excelled their English knowledge. We have left the kindergarten with the feeling of sadness and promise that we will come and visit their friends and teachers every time we can.”
