The philosophy - Montessori education is a method of teaching that is founded by Dr. maria Montessori. It combines a philosophy of freedom and self development using a prctical hands-on approach.
The Environment - Based on Dr. Maria Montessori's belief that all children have an intrinsic desire to learn, the Montessori classroom is carefully planned and prepared to invite children to engage in these learning activities of their own individual choice.
The Teachers - Montessori teachers are trained to observe their students carefully and respond to their individual needs. With a small student-teacher ratio in the school, each child's individual needs will be met and catered to.
The Children - Students in the Montessori classroom are encouraged to perform task independently to gain a sense of joy and self-achievement with each completed task.
The Programme - In the Montessori program, children are given the opportunity to develop important life skills. Practical life exerccises include pouring from jugs, threading and working on dressing frames, to practicing buttoning and zipping.
Sensorial exercises refine the senses through sorting, matching and comparing of objects. These early sensory impressions boost children's power of observation and discrimination
Language is based on a carefully structured multi-sensory phonic approach to writing and reading
Montessori's Mathematics materials enable children toprogress from concrete to the abstract stages using self-correcting apparatus.
Cultural studies include topics such as geography, zoology, history and botany
