Applications will be returned by the deadline to the address indicated in the application. Those pre-school students who need day care in addition to pre-school education will return the day care application by the deadline. Day care applications are also available from day care centers and day care offices. An information transfer form is mailed to the homes together with the pre-school notification forms , through which the parents / guardians forward information about their child and the pre-school teacher about the issues relevant to the child. In information transfer, things that support the child as he or she transitions from early childhood to preschool are transferred to the preschooler. The parents / guardians of the child in day care fill in the information transfer form in cooperation with the employee working in the child care group. If the child is not in day care, the parents fill in the information transfer form at home, supplementing the form with information provided by the club instructor or nurse, if necessary. The information transmitted about the child and his or her interests in the information transfer helps the pre-school teacher to maintain and secure the joy of the child's learning and to build a positive learning path for the child right at the beginning of the pre-school year.
