Dear students,
Thank you very much for your interest in the Montessori Method of Education. I am delighted to share with you the rich history and enduring objectives of the Montessori teaching method, a philosophy that has transformed education for over a century.
The Montessori method, founded by Dr. Maria Montessori in the early 1900s, was born out of her profound observations of children’s natural learning processes. Dr. Montessori, an Italian physician and educator, developed this approach based on the belief that children learn best in an environment that supports their innate curiosity and desire to learn. Her pioneering work emphasized the importance of hands-on learning, self-directed activity, and collaborative play.
Today, the objectives of Montessori teaching remain as relevant and impactful as ever. Our mission is to foster a calm and loving environment where children can thrive. We aim to nurture a generation of peaceful, loving, and successful individuals by focusing on the following key principles: Child-centred learning, hands-on experience, independence and confidence, respect and compassion, and holistic development.
Our ultimate goal is to create a nurturing and supportive atmosphere where children feel valued and loved. By doing so, we believe we can raise a generation of individuals who are not only academically successful but also compassionate and peaceful contributors to society.
Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of our children and the future of our world.
Warm regards,
