When visiting a Montessori classroom, you will discover a wide range of activities as children of different age groups work independently and cooperatively. You will observe students who have the discipline, the confidence, and the willingness to apply themselves to a chosen task. The classroom reflects an environment specifically tailored to each child’s needs.
Throughout the classroom are attractive Montessori materials, designed to be self-teaching, self-correcting and progressively challenging. Our Montessori teachers act as facilitators, encouraging active learning and determining which new lessons and materials should be presented to each child.
You will find that the Montessori classroom is a place where the joy of learning comes naturally.
