Our ELC stage 1 students visited Hopes and Dreams Montessori School. Using the methods of teaching developed by Maria Montessori, their aim is to provide purposeful and stimulating early childhood activities, which enhance each child’s growth and development. They believe that the early years are the most important time for exploration and discovery; that children need to create, play, make friends and learn whilst having fun. Hopes and Dreams offers each child an atmosphere of warmth, understanding and a place to develop, both as an individual and as part of a group. Thank you for showing us The Montessori Method.
