Our Mission

In Dr. Maria Montessori’s words “The child has to acquire physical independence by being self-sufficient; he must become of independent will by using in freedom his own power of choice; he must become capable of independent thought by working alone without interruption.”

We follow the child and provide the complete Montessori program which considers auto education and the love of learning. The program uses the spontaneous attention of a child to develop concepts. As children work on didactic material they become ready to encounter more concrete mathematical and linguistic materials. The preliminary exercises provide purpose to help develop motor control and coordination, independence, concentration, and a sense of responsibility. These series of activities help improve the fine motor skills which are used for cleaning and caring the environment as well as preparing food.

Our purpose and aim is to gain control in the coordination of the child’s movement, and help them gain independence and adapt to society. Our school’s motto of self-learning will help the children become responsible members of the community, who will become global problem-solving citizens in the future!
