The Montessori section is for children who are over 2 1/2 years old in September of the academic year. Montessori is a system of Nursery, Primary and Secondary education devised by Dr. Maria Montessori in the 1950s. She developed a series of equipment and a method of teaching to maximize each child's physical and psychological potential at any stage of their development. In the class, the children are encouraged to complete activities once started and to take responsibility for their classroom. This is done in a fun and child-friendly way. The Montessori classroom is divided into six areas: art, practical life, sensorial, language, mathematics and culture, which includes, geography, nature and science. All of our teachers have either Early Years or Montessori teaching qualifications and our assistant teachers are also encouraged to study nursery teaching methods. We are proactive in providing continuing education for all our staff, either by hosting courses at the nursery or facilitating staff to attend recognized study days. Our vision is to provide an environment that fosters a child's self confidence, independence and full potential; creating and developing the leaders of tomorrow.
