Primary Program

Program Overview

In our Primary Program, children aged three to six explore a comprehensive curriculum based in the main areas of the Montessori classroom–Practical Life, Sensorial, Mathematics, Language, Science, and Cultural Studies. Through singing, drawing, storytelling, language learning, and nature exploration on our expansive grounds, education is both structured and spontaneous. Encouraging mutual learning, children benefit from the guidance of both peers and teachers in a supportive environment that mirrors the natural way younger siblings learn from their older counterparts. 

 

An intense concentration on spoken language and cultivating the foundational skills of literacy supports the child in learning how to understand and communicate with others, while an emphasis on physical and emotional development and awareness of the world around are also integrated into the classroom experience.
