BEACON HOUSE MONTESSORI
Our Programs
Our care of the children should be governed not by the desire to ‘make them learn things’, but by the endeavour always to keep burning within them the light which is called intelligence
Our programs include an Early Learners and Cycle One program.
Families have the choice of two sessions to choose from:
- 8.5 hr session (8:00am to 4:30pm)
- 9.5 hr session (8:00am to 5:30pm)
The Montessori program is offered from 9:00am to 2:00pm.
The Montessori curriculum and classrooms are designed to nurture your child’s curiosity and development through hands-on and child-directed work. They’re intended to inspire a lifelong love of learning and a sense of pride when a child successfully completes a task independently.
In a Montessori environment, children become confident and curious learners with the skills and knowledge to thrive and succeed throughout school and life.
Early Learners Program (2-3 Years)
Our Early Learners Program is designed to encourage your toddler to explore the environment around them. The Montessori environment is made up of age appropriate activities that aids the child to explore and develop both physically and intellectually.
Toddlers are naturally curious and hands on learners, as such providing an environment that they are able to explore these interests is essential. Fostering social interactions, concentration, self-regulation and language skills are some key areas of focus for this age group.
Cycle One Program (3-6 Years)
Cycle One is a three-year-long program that develops educational foundations to prepare children for school and life. The program expands on the fundamentals children learn in the early Learners Program and encourages real-life skills, independent learning, confidence, creativity, and problem-solving.
Children are encouraged to follow their interests and learn at their own pace. The Cycle One Program classroom is designed to encourage learning during a child’s sensitive periods through a range of more advanced Montessori materials and classroom stimuli.
