Why Montessori?

“Our aim is not merely to make the child understand, and still less to force him or her to memorize, but so to touch the imagination, as to enthuse the child’s innermost core”

This is a most important question a young parent can ask. There are many schools around here. What sets us apart? What makes a good Montessori school the right choice?

Early in the 20th century, an Italian doctor established her teaching method. Dr Montessori’s discoveries caught the attention of educators around the world. One observation became a cornerstone for these educators. She said meaningful work is essential to a child’s development.
