Early Years

Early Years (EY) at the International School of Hamburg is comprised of our youngest students in Early Years 1 (age 3), Early Years 2 (age 4) and Early Years 3 (age 5).

As learners in the EY, children are encouraged to become confident and motivated learners, risk takers and explorers. They are encouraged to learn to understand that mistakes are part of the learning process and to think creatively to find solutions to problems. Students develop curiosity, self-efficacy, interdependence as well as communication and social skills. EY teachers build a positive relationship with children based upon respect and kindness. We provide a warm, welcoming atmosphere based on trust, respect, safety, responsibility and kindness.
