About Montessori
Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1953) was the pioneering Italian educator and physician who founded the method. She based this method on her philosophy that children need an environment which they can explore and experience freely. She believed that children should be given the opportunity to develop naturally at their own level of ability and interest.
Montessori offers a prepared environment, which promotes an exciting and stimulating approach to academics and personal growth. The environment consists of the areas of Practical Life, Mathematics, Sensorial, Language and Culture which inspire the child's love for learning.
This environment creates an atmosphere whereby all facets of the whole child are developed. These include emotional well-being, social skills, academics and personal achievement. As a result, the child becomes confident and has the ability to achieve success through the use of the prepared materials.
