the specific needs of each child’s stage of
development, nurturing their intrinsic desire for
learning, and allowing each student to engage in their
own learning experience.

Whole-Child education
We create a supportive learning environment in every classroom, and the whole school, to enable the sense of belonging and emotional safety that allows the child to develop peacefully and naturally.
Montessori methodology is based on a holistic approach to education, it acknowledges the need for the human being to developtheir intellectual, social, emotional, physical, artistic ,creative and spiritual potentials to become a fulfilled and happy human.
Student-centered learning
Student-centered learning looks for the child's interests, recognising and emphasizing each child's unique abilities and learning styles, and following their own pace of learning.
Children are active and responsible participants in their own process of learning , building autonomy, accountability and the skills that will enable a lifelong love of learning.
In a learner-centered approach the focus is shifted from the teacher to the child. The Montessori guide acts as a mentor and facilitator in the process of learning, providing guidance so that each child can experience success and acquire skills naturally and without competition.
Experiential learning
Children need to be immersed in real life, hands-on and meaningful learning experiences for their brain to develop naturally.
A complete set of scientificly designed learning materials provide children with concrete experiences to gradually understand abstract concepts.
Cross-age mentoring is present every day, building leadership skills and consolidating their academic knowledge.
As children grow, the curriculum moves to a business-like approach emphasizing accountability and teamwork through project-based learning and real-life experiences.
The guide facilitates decision-making, problem-solving and reflection on the experiences, aiding in the development of their analytical skills and critical thinking.
