Our classrooms are thoughtfully designed with materials that are engaging, accessible and developmentally appropriate for the students, allowing them to choose activities of interest to them.

Our classrooms are thoughtfully designed with materials that are engaging, accessible and developmentally appropriate for the students, allowing them to choose activities of interest to them.

Children are encouraged to explore at their own pace which fosters independence, motivation, and a love of learning. Children of different age groups work together in a community atmosphere with younger children learning from their older peers and older students developing their self-esteem and confidence by helping to guide the younger students.

Practical life is the building block of a Montessori classroom where students refine their fine motor skills, sense of order, concentration, and sense of responsibility. With a strong emphasis on social-emotional needs, students are respected as individuals while their holistic development is nurtured.

Character Development

We believe in the holistic development of our students, not only academically but also morally and ethically.

We aim to instill in them values such as integrity, empathy, resilience, and respect for self and others.

Global Perspective

We value diversity and aim to foster a global mindset in our students.

We expose them to a variety of cultures, perspectives, and experiences, preparing them to thrive in an interconnected and interdependent world.

Critical Thinking

We encourage our students to think critically, analyze information, solve problems, and make informed decisions.

We believe that developing strong critical thinking skills is essential for their success in academics and in life.
