In our Montessori school, growing well means evolving harmoniously on the physical, intellectual, emotional, and social levels in an environment that respects the rhythm and needs of each child. Here’s what this implies:

Development of Autonomy
and Self-Confidence

  • The child chooses their activities based on their interests and pace.
  • Self-correction and experimentation help them develop perseverance.
  • They learn to manage their work and solve problems on their own.

Support for Intellectual Development

  • The sensory and concrete approach to learning promotes in-depth understanding.
  • Subjects are approached in an interdisciplinary manner to stimulate natural curiosity.
  • The child gradually moves from concrete materials to abstraction, at their own pace.

Emotional and Social Fulfillment

  • The supportive environment allows the child to express their emotions and develop their emotional intelligence.
  • The mix of ages promotes mutual aid and natural tutoring between younger and older children.
  • The child learns to manage conflicts through non-violent communication and mutual respect.

Connection with Nature
and the Real World

  • The Montessori environment encourages exploration and experimentation in connection with nature.
  • The child develops an ecological awareness and respect for life.
  • Practical experiences (cooking, gardening, concrete projects) anchor learning in reality.

Respect for the Child’s Pace

  • No competition or comparison: each child progresses according to their own development.
  • The educator observes and accompanies without imposing, adapting to the specific needs of each child.
  • The goal is to cultivate intrinsic motivation and the joy of learning.
