Curriculum planning
Our teaching methodology follows the Montessori method, which integrates specially-designed materials for sensorial development, language, mathematics, natural and physical sciences, and culture in a hands-on and student-centered learning environment. Our objective is to promote the child's natural love of learning through dynamic and engaging learning materials, supportive and knowledgeable teachers, and a curriculum that recognizes the uniqueness of each child and their learning pace. Our classes offer a mixed-age bilingual learning experience which emphasizes the child's independence, abilities, and membership in their classroom community.
Learning / Teaching approach and activities
Montessori teaching method.
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
Report Cards - twice a year. Assessment report - monthly
School Characteristics
School vision and mission
We believe that each child has diverse needs, interests and abilities that should be nurtured in an environment where his/her cognitive, social, emotional and physical needs are met; and unique potentialities maximized. Our main Montessori principles are to:
• Respect the child in his personality and integrity as an individual.
• Support the child in developing his own will, giving him the opportunity to work independently and to make his own choices.
• Help him overcome difficulties.
According to Montessori philosophy, the optimum time for developing and honing core life skills is birth to age six. The knowledge and skills learned in the Montessori environment help children become critical thinkers, problem solvers, and lifelong learners.
