The Montessori Method
A child-centered educational approach based on scientific observations
The Montessori Method of education, developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, is a child-centered educational approach based on the scientific observations of children from birth to adulthood. Dr. Montessori's Method has been time tested, with over 100 years of success in diverse cultures throughout the world.
It is a view of the child as one who is naturally eager for knowledge and capable of initiating learning in a supportive, thoughtfully prepared learning environment.
Core Principles
Montessori education is not a system of teaching but a method of guiding children in the total development of their personalities and enhancing key periods of their growth and learning.
"Enjoyment", "Happiness", "Empowerment" are the words we hear only in Montessori House of Children. It is not what the teacher does or what the school provides... it is what the child experiences at the end.

Mixed Ages

Prepared Environment
Everything has a specific place, fostering order and positive growth
Freedom of Movement
