Montessori
Moving from Nursery to 'big' School is a huge step for your child. We help your child to prepare for a successful transition and also for future success in school and life.
We encourage children to think for themselves and with gentle guidance and the curriculum we follow, children become adept at problem solving, and working together. Their confidence grows as positive reinforcement and nurturing each child’s social skills ensures a bright beneficial and very busy year which ensures a smooth transition to one of the big milestones for everyone in starting school.
Children attend either :
Full time basis 3 hours as part of their day
Morning session only 9:30am - 12:30 noon
Tiny Tots Montessori classes encourage children intellectually, physically emotionally and socially to prepare children to meet the expectations that both primary schools and parents have for readiness for school.
Language skills: includes speaking Irish, nursery rhymes, writing and school plays.
Maths skills: focuses on counting, sorting, pattern recognition and problem solving.
Science and nature: encourages children to ask questions, explore, experiment and actively involve themselves in science and nature.
Creativity: allows children to express themselves through art, music and dance.
Social skills: promotes a self awareness and contentment within a child. Allowing them to listen to others, to take turns, focus and nurture a deep respect for themselves.
Exercise: daily exercise both indoor and outdoor. In addition, we also participate in the 'Stretch N Grow' programme on a weekly basis (€3 per week extra).
They will be able to pour a drink, understand their own space, put on their own coats and instill an independence ensuring a smooth and successful transition to primary school.
Children are listened to, encouraged and develop a deep bond with their carers/teachers at this stage of their lives, culminating in an emotional end of year play and graduation day for all involved.
Children who remain for the full day, continue on to a play based remainder of the day, which includes arts and crafts, music, sand/water play, board games and the all important outdoor play.
