Our philosophy, which is based on the work of Maria Montessori, recognizes each child as a unique individual. Montessori observed that when children grow up in an environment that is intellectually and artistically alive, warm, and encouraging, they will spontaneously ask questions, investigate, create and explore new ideas. A holistic approach promotes the development of social skills, emotional growth, physical coordination and cognitive skills.

Montessori felt that learning can and should be a relaxed, comfortable, natural process. The secret is to pay attention to the hidden nature of the child at any given stage of development and to design an environment at school in which they begin to fulfill their innate potential.
