A school thoughtfully designed by architects and child psychologists to allow each unique child to confidently form their identity and reach their fullest potential. Here, our learning facilitators have time to observe and guide each child through the use of positive relationships, positive communication and positive discipline.
Curriculum
Our curriculum focuses on the Montessori philosophy with the goal to meet the physical, psychological and emotional needs of each child. The carefully prepared environment in the classroom offers opportunity for children to happily explore the world of practical life skills, sensorial activities, language, culture, and mathematics. Children obtain real and practical skills through hands-on experience with Montessori materials and child-sized tools. A selection of additional classes such as sports, yoga and creative drama are included to further nurture each child’s well-being. We also provide ample time for outdoor exploration in our beautiful garden to build resilience and the next generation’s love for nature.
The heart of our program is rooted in each child. Based on the facilitator’s observations of the children each day, individual or small group lessons are planned and presented to meet the needs of the children in real time. They learn at their own pace. All their interests and talents are recognized and fostered as we “follow the child”.
Uniqueness
Tri-language: the natural ability of switching from English to Chinese or Thai throughout the day are built as our students learn to communicate in different languages with different facilitators.
Optimal ratio: physical, psychological and emotional needs of the students are met through appropriate children-teacher ratio.
Child-centered: individual and small group learning plans emerge immediately as the facilitators “follow the child”.
Skill-based: Montessori materials and child-sized tools are accessible everywhere on site for children to obtain practical life skills at their own interests.
Mixed age: children become students and teachers to each other simultaneously, embracing diversity and develop understanding of the world.
