ENQUIRING MINDS  - Full Day and Part-time Educare for children aged 3mths-12 years
Montessori Room
 
The central purpose of the  Montessori Method is to help each child develop a positive self-image. Through a carefully planned environment,the child is led to develop the necessary insights, appreciation and skills for a lifetime of creative learning.
 
The basic idea of the Montessori approach to education is that every child carries unseen within him the potentialities of the person he/she will soon become. In order that the child develop his/her physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual capacities to the fullest, he/she must have freedom .. a freedom to be achieved through order and self discipline.
 
 
The world of the child is full of sights and sounds which at first appear chaotic. From this chaos, the child must gradually create order; he slowly gains mastery of himself and of his environment. Dr. Montessori developed the "prepared environment" which possess a certain order and disposes the child to develop his capabilities at his own speed, according to his own capacities in a non-competitive atmosphere.
 
In brief, the Montessori approach is designed to help the child build within himself the foundations for a lifetime of creative learning.The Montessori Room is a fully equiped prepared environment catering for children from 2 years and 7 months.
 
The Montessori group can look forward to nutritional breakfasts and lunches, mid-morning and mid-afternoon snacks, as well as being photographed and their progress monitered  throughout the year. They are entertained and stimulated with interesting lessons and educational shows..
