👶 Toddlers Program (1.6–2.6 years)

Our Toddlers Program offers a gentle, nurturing space where the youngest children begin their journey toward independence. In a calm, thoughtfully prepared environment, toddlers explore language, movement, and practical life activities at their own pace. With loving guidance and freedom to choose, each child develops confidence, security, and a joyful relationship with learning.

🎯 Aims:

To nurture a sense of order and security through a calm, consistent environment
To build trust and social connection through gentle guidance and respectful relationships

The Primary environment lays a strong foundation for life. Children engage in purposeful work using hands-on Montessori materials that support literacy, numeracy, sensorial exploration, and care of self and the environment. The mixed-age classroom fosters independence, concentration, and social development — nurturing well-rounded, confident individuals during these vital early years.

🎯 Aims:
