Our School
Located in the heart of Treviso for nearly one hundred years, Rubinato Nursery School believes in an education based on the principles of the Roman Catholic tradition and founded on the professionalism of teachers who guide our children along a path of growth with passion, love, and competence, while respecting the natural rhythms and needs of different ages.
Our daily school day routine, based on a calm and relaxed pace and a peaceful atmosphere, is fundamental in giving our students the sense of security necessary to their well-being. The objective is to provide children with the instruments they need to learn how to relate to others and to develop independence with awareness, encouraging imagination and creativity, while allowing each child’s individuality to shine.
Our Educational Objectives
Our school seeks to offer instruction which is both competent and appropriate, recognizing and adapting to the needs of each child and stage of development.
Our teachers accompany their students on their educational journey, encouraging them to explore and understand Christian and universal values, favoring harmonious personal development open to reciprocity and solidarity.
Our Teachers
The staff of teachers work together in an atmosphere of collegiality to develop a didactic plan specific to each of the three age levels. Our teachers are constantly looking to improve and share expertise leading to satisfying professional and personal growth.
“We’ve been working together for twenty years, with some new colleagues joining us over the years, and we’ve learned to build our relationship with honesty and complete cooperation. We are a very close group, at work, but also in life.”

Our School buildings and grounds
The environment which welcomes children is fundamental for their well-being. One of Rubinato Nursery School’s greatest assets is its large garden where students can play in peace in the shade of century-old trees, in utmost safety, as the space is internal and completely private. The garden is home to many playground features: a wooden train, a small tower and slide, a Tibetan bridge, a play house, garden toys and all of the equipment necessary for play and learning. The school is made up of two buildings, a historic patrician townhouse and an adjoining building, which house the entrance hall with the children’s wardrobes, classrooms, gym (currently being used as a classroom), games room, dining hall, kitchen, three bathrooms and service rooms. Each space has been designed with children in mind, adhering to all safety and hygiene regulations, to create an atmosphere of serenity for the little ones.
The Kitchen
Our on-site kitchen sets Rubinato Nursery School apart from many other nursery schools. Our excellent cook, Tina, creates a 5 week rotation of menus in collaboration with an expert nutritionist and reviewed by ULSS 2, the local health authority in Treviso. Both the winter and summer menus utilize seasonal produce as much as possible, and we also try to source ingredients which are organic and local. From fresh fruit and vegetables to 100% Italian olive oil, we aim to give our children food which is healthy and balanced. Alternative menus are created for those children with medically-certified food allergies or for other specific ethical considerations.
