The most imporatnt period of life is not the age of university studies, but the first one.....the period from birth to the age of six....

Spring Menu from our kitchen....

There is a great sense of community within the Montessori classroom, where children of differing ages work together in an atmosphere of cooperation rather than competitiveness. There is respect for the environment and for the individuals within it, which comes through experience of freedom within the community. Maria Montessori
