HISTORY
“as we observe children, we see the vitality of their spirit, the maximum effort put forth in all they do, the intuition, attention and focus they bring to all life’s events, and the sheer joy they experience in living.”
maria montessori

PRACTICAL LIFE
“It is interesting to notice that where life is simple and natural and where the children participate in the adult’s life, they are calm and happy. ”
maria montessori

PRINCIPLES
“the protection of the children’s right not to be interrupted when productively occupied is key to the children’s development of concentration and interest in their work.”
maria montessori

ACADEMICS
“The child’s sensibility to absorb language is so great that he can acquire foreign languages at this age [birth to three]. ”
maria montessori

PHILOSOPHY
“We must proceed, not on the basis of our own ideas or on our own prejudices, not on preconceived methods, but by observing the child.”
maria montessori

SENSORY
“The child gives us a beautiful lesson – that in order to form and maintain our intelligence, we must use our hands.”
maria montessori

IN THE HOME
"to assist a child, we must provide him with an environment which will enable him to develop freely."
maria montessori

COURTESY
“We must respect the child and he must understand that he is respected. He needs to be prepared for everything that is going to be done for him.”
maria montessori

CLASSROOM
“education is not something which the teacher does, but a natural process which develops spontaneously in the human being. it is not acquired by listening to words, but in virtue of experiences
in which the child acts on his/her environment.”
maria montessori

YOUTUBE
"It is through the activity of the child that the mind of man is created. We must consider therefore, the child – who has this power, this activity, who is the builder of man, who is a spiritual embryo.”
maria montessori

"How can you be prepared for social life if you have no knowledge of social life or the beginning of society?”
maria montessori

CLUBHOUSE
"A child must go where he can hear people speaking. But he is more fortunate if he has little children speaking around him because they talk incessantly and he will hear a great deal more. ”
maria montessori
MISSION
"this is the hope we have—a hope in a new humanity that will come from this new education. an education that is collaboration of man and the universe.”
maria montessori

VALUES
"It is so helpful to a child when we try to understand his efforts. The child truly suffers when he cannot make himself understood and this suffering has great consequences.”
maria montessori
