Our Guiding Montessori Principles

 

• Learning occurs in an inquiring, cooperative and nurturing atmosphere. Students increase their own knowledge through self and teacher initiated experiences.

• Learning takes place through the senses. Students learn by manipulating materials and interacting with others. These meaningful experiences are precursors to the abstract understanding of ideas.

• The individual is considered as a whole. The physical, emotional, social, aesthetic, spiritual and cognitive needs are inseparable and are equally important.

• Respect and caring attitudes for oneself, others, the environment and all life are necessary.
