We were one of the first Montessori schools in Pretoria called ‘Brooklyn Montessori Preschool ’and in later years we changed the name as we were incorporating many philosophies into our daily programme. We are constantly learning from new research and through the observation of our children.
We believe that development cannot be taught or hurried but can be guided and encouraged and we allow the children to lead us. Children will be successful if they have mastered the necessary physical skills, are socially competent, emotionally well adjusted and have meaningful cognitive processing skills. These are intricately woven and are equally important to develop a well rounded child.
We provide a happy loving, well-prepared and child friendly environment and we make changes regularly to meet the needs of the children. Our environment encourages independence and hands on exploration and we focus on the process rather than the end result. As their skills increase they grow in self confidence and experience success in learning.
Our large fun outdoor area includes climbing equipment, a vegetable garden, sandpits, sensory areas and creative activities which all encourage motor development, problem solving and social interaction.
Our small classes allow for individual attention and each child is made to feel special. The teachers are English speaking, qualified, experienced and enthusiastic and they consider it a privilege to teach children.
Visitors are always welcome at our school as every day is open day.
