Maria Montessori - The Discovery of the Child
Dear Parents,
​
Welcome to The Children’s House Montessori Kindergarten. The Children’s House has been caring for children in our community for over 20 years now. We are dedicated to laying a strong foundation for your children to develop holistically in a conducive environment. Our children here are our priority. Preschool is an exciting time for children as this will be their “second home” where they explore, gain a sense of self, play with peers, and build their self-confidence.
​
The Montessori approach provides freedom and independence within a structured environment and respects the natural development of the brain as well as individual needs and interests. Montessori is a preparation for life.
​
25 years in this early childhood field has taught me that, all children can learn, and all children want to learn. All children have greatness hidden inside them. Through many years of teaching, I have come to realise the importance of the role of educators as we need to instill the love for education in children – such as for reading, learning, discovery, and exploring. Another important point is building strong partnerships between school and home to provide the best learning experience for children.
​
As a Principal of The Children’s House, I ensure that the school continues to provide a happy and safe environment for your children, our teachers continue to provide meaningful experiences, and that my door is always open for you if you have any queries with regards to the school or your child’s development.
