Culture

In a Montessori setting, Geography is taught with visual, colourful materials that enhance the child’s ability to learn. The materials are objects that teach the child the shape of the earth, land and water forms, and how to identify the continents. Colour-coded puzzle maps are used to identify continents, countries, provinces, oceans, lakes, rivers, and other geographical areas of the world. Children learn how to colour and illustrate maps, write a legend for the map and, most importantly, learn the continents and countries by distinguishing them through colour and shape. Our program provides a unique and exciting style of teaching the world to our students.

Our hope for a clean and prosperous earth rests with our children. To be able to leave them some legacy of Mother Nature and the environment, we educate our students by raising their awareness about environmental issues and their impact on global warming, helping them understand the urgency to act now.

Our Montessori students learn how to recycle classroom materials. Working together with parents, this education process extends itself beyond school, allowing students to exercise good recycling habits.  Our program teaches the importance of reduce, reuse, recycle, and renew. In the spring, weather permitting, students and teachers move the classroom outdoors where students plant trees and flowers around the campus.
