Learning Environments
Each of our carefully prepared environments have a high number of teachers who are loving, nurturing, and rigorously trained in child development and the Montessori approach to create peaceful, supportive and safe environments for all children. It is within these spaces that children’s natural passion for wonder, curiosity, exploration, independence, and discovery come alive
When it is time for children to transition into a new environment with more appropriate materials, you will notice this change to be effortless and seamless as each classroom instils the skills of independence, patience, and respect.
Our setting, our environments and our curriculum allow for children to transition throughout the nursery when they are ready and is not solely based upon a child’s age. Teachers’ observation strengths allow us to quickly identify the needs of the growing child and can support them to move around the setting when their need arises.
Nursery room
Known as the Nido—or Nest in English—our Montessori nursery is a gentle, nurturing space filled with warmth, comfort, safety, and security for the very youngest children. These early years lay the foundations for your child’s future, and during this precious time they absorb everything around them. Each day brings new discoveries as they learn to move, communicate, cooperate, and realise just how capable they truly are.
From around 6 months old, children join us in a calm, soft, and joyful environment where they are lovingly supported through their first two and a half years. Here, they begin to explore their personalities, their growing bodies, and the first steps of social interaction. Our experienced and caring team is there to encourage, comfort, laugh, and share moments with your child, always treating them with respect and genuine warmth.
The children have a dedicated sleep room, offering a quiet, cosy retreat with soft lighting and calming sounds so children can rest whenever they need to. They also have direct access to their own specially designed garden, complete with a ramp so even crawlers and shufflers can explore independently. This outdoor space gives them the freedom to move, discover, and follow their natural curiosity.
Every part of this special space is designed to help your child develop the skills they need on their journey toward independence and a lifelong love of learning. It is a true “yes” space—where your little one can safely explore, knowing that everything around them is created with their needs in mind. Through thoughtful activities and gentle guidance, we support their movement, emotional growth, social interactions, and early language development.
Pre-school room
This is a place where your child can feel at home and work with interest at their own desired and natural space. Children have complete access to specifically designed wide range of resources that foster their inquisitiveness, independence, learning and development. The teaching opportunities will allow your child to absorb information about the wider world and develop the skills they need to support their every day lives. The children enjoy thinking and learning critically using specialist Montessori equipment that enhances their learning of math, literacy, science and more. They have the freedom to choose their own activities using their own initiative and to follow their individual needs, supporting their desire for independence and learning.
We are proud of the Community the environment creates, as children are in a mixed age range, collaborate between rooms and learn from each other, where older children are role models to those younger than them, as well as the adults around them. Your child will learn to cooperate with children of different ages, respect and celebrate each other’s cultures, efforts, and take care of themselves, others, and their environment. The classroom becomes a thriving community where children are treated with respect and dignity and where they learn to treat others with respect and dignity.
