Saint Patrick

Saint Patrick is an early childhood education institution in Villa Triana, Rancagua, Chile. It supports children from six months of age until they turn six or begin school, aiming to provide a strong educational foundation for their early years. The institution’s vision is to help children become conscious of their role in improving the world and active participants in a changing, global society. It also values the involvement of families and other members of its community in the educational process, with the goal of enriching children’s holistic development.

Since 2024, Saint Patrick has incorporated Finnish early education guidelines into its work. The team trained with Plus Finland, a Chilean-Finnish startup, to learn and apply this curricular approach in local settings and across the preschool’s learning spaces. Saint Patrick offers enrollment for 2026 and has announced a 2026 summer workshop. Families can arrange a visit to learn about its operations and facilities. The preschool is located at Guillermo Saavedra 30 and can be contacted by phone or email.
