We offer your children an educational alternative to conventional methods of education - lessons and premises are adapted to the special needs and developmental stage of your children. Children from 18 months to 10 years can playfully learn a second language according to the bilingual Montessori concept.
What does bilingual education mean for your child?
- Our all-day concept enables all children to speak both languages directly and to use them at any time.
- In Nido (children under 3 years) and Children's House (children between 3 and 5 years) we have bilingual groups. Language learning here takes place mainly through everyday communication, games, songs and rhymes.
- At school, we teach according to the immersion method: there is always one English-speaking and one German-speaking teacher in the class. Each child has the opportunity to acquire, develop and refine language skills in both languages.
What is special about Montessori education?
- Montessori education is based on the realisation that people learn best when their own motivation is perceived, supported and encouraged.
- Children want to act independently. We enable this through a consistently stimulating and preparatory environment, the Montessori material and our educational attitude.
- We support, encourage and accompany each child individually.
- Learning together with children of different ages, backgrounds and stages of development supports social behaviour and solidarity.
