About institution

Preschool education in Bačka Palanka dates back to the 19th century. No childcare was organised during the occupation. In April 1953, at the initiative of AFZ (Women's Antifascist Front) and the Local Committee, in addition to the three existing kindergartens within primary schools, a preschool institution was established which had one mixed group of children, from 3 to 6 months to 7 years of age, a War Orphanage, and a Boarding school for students of economics. In 1954, a department was opened in the Hungarian and Slovak languages. In 1954, the institution had seven groups of preschool children and all kindergartens in Bačka Palanka were integrated into the independent preschool institution “Poletarac”. During that time, half-day care groups were opened. In 1968, the fusion of all these institutions started and the preschool institution “Mladost” was established, which has employed professional staff since 1970. In the 2016/2017 school year, the network of kindergartens was expanded to include two more kindergartens. While waiting to mark the 50th anniversary of the preschool institution “Mladost”, it has grown into 39 groups and 130 employees.
