"Our aim is not merely to make the child understand, and still less to force him to memorize, but so to touch his imagination as to enthuse him to his innermost core." - Maria Montessori

Montessori at LMS is based on these beliefs:

  • Children are naturally eager to learn
  • Children deserve respect as well as guidance. Freedom within an ordered environment encourages them to be independent and resourceful. 
  • All aspects of a child need nurturance: physical, social, emotional and cognitive
  • Peer learning in multiage classrooms fosters strong interpersonal skills
  • Uninterrupted work time allows focused learning – individual and collaborative

"The teacher's task is not a small or easy one! She has to prepare a huge amount of knowledge to satisfy the child's mental hunger. She is not like the ordinary teacher, limited by a syllabus. The needs of the child are clearly more difficult to answer." - Maria Montessori
