Planet Montessori Pre School takes care of children from aged 3 to 6 years old. The children are grouped into Nursery, Kindergarten 1 and Kindergarten 2 classes.
Within a Montessori environment, the child feels empowered to develop. Our Planet Montessori Program is based on the philosophies of Maria Montessori. Children work in the areas of Sensorial, Practical Life, Cultural life, Math & Language.
Our Montessori Method of education focuses on allowing a child to learn in a hands-on environment. All furniture and material are custom-made to the child's educational level. The children work with materials that are placed on low shelves for easy accessability.
A small rug is provided to define a child's personal space; one in which they can feel independence of others in their selection of materials. All aspects of the environment are inspected to ensure safety and security of a child being able to fully explore at his / her own developmental level..
The children eat meals and snacks on low tables with cube chairs so that they can engage in family-style meals with their friends.
The Montessori cultural life is a curriculum that introduces children to different cultures, languages, and ways of life. It includes geography, zoology, botany and music.
• Geography teaches the children about land and water using tools like globes.
• Zoology teaches the children about the anatomy and classification of animals using nomenclature cards.
• Botany allows the children to learn more about plans through nature walks, literature and practical life.
• Our cultural music activities allows the children to engage in indoor and outdoor music activities.
