Get To Know Us

Centre philosophy

Centre philosophy

Montessori education is a personalised approach developed by Dr Maria Montessori, proven successful for over a century. It tailors learning to each child's style, stage, and interests, fostering academic and well-being foundations through hands-on experiences and real-world problem-solving. Montessori educators observe children's interests and guide them toward relevant materials for purposeful and engaging learning. This method acknowledges diverse learning paces and preferences, promoting respect, independence, and freedom for children to direct their own learning, leading to high motivation and a love for learning.

About the curriculum

About the curriculum

The curriculum at Montessori Academy follows a blended approach, drawing on both Montessori principles and the Early Years Learning Framework. The curriculum follows five key learning areas:

  • Practical Life: exercises and activities that children observe in daily life to develop their independence, concentration and fine motor skills. 
  • Sensorial: activities that help to refine the senses and lay the foundation of early mathematics, language and geometry.
  • Mathematics: hands on experiences that teach both abstract and concrete mathematical concepts.
  • Language: exercises that help the children to develop their vocabulary and understanding of language.
  • Cultural Studies: children learn about culture and community through subjects such as Geography, Botany, Zoology, Science, History, Music and Art.

The educators use Montessori materials to teach the curriculum and tailor the learning to each individual child.

Centre philosophy

Centre philosophy

Montessori early learning centres differ from conventional preschools and childcare facilities. They create an ideal learning environment, offer customized educational materials, and provide guidance to support holistic child development. Montessori education is active, adaptable to each child's pace, encourages self-correction, and aligns with individual interests. Its overarching objective is to equip children with the knowledge and abilities needed for lifelong learning, fostering confidence, independence, and a thirst for knowledge. 

Centre philosophy

Centre philosophy

Many families choose Montessori Academy because it aligns with their parenting style, beliefs about early childhood education, and their child's future aspirations. Those with a 'Montessori Mindset' believe in their children's immense capabilities and equally prioritize their well-being and academics. 

Selecting the right early education provider involves finding a place, people, and program that truly resonates with your family. Families choosing Montessori Academy place a high value on early childhood education and seek the best possible start in life for their child.

We are so grateful to have our son MH at Croydon Ministry Academy. From the very beginning, the educators have shown so much kindness, warmth, and genuine care toward him. It is clear that every child is truly valued and loved here. He is always happy, safe, and well looked after, which gives us great peace of mind as parents. The team creates such a nurturing and positive environment where children can learn, grow, and feel confident. We deeply appreciate the dedication, patience, and love shown by all the educators each day. Thank you for making such a beautiful difference in our son’s life. We highly recommend Croydon Ministry Academy to any family looking for a caring and supportive place for their child.

Love Croydon Montessori! You can tell the educators love what they do and embrace the values of Montessori. They have supported my child to become more confident with peers and more confident within themselves. Management is wonderful! You’ll always find Alisha engaged with the children and families despite having what I can only imagine is a busy schedule. I’m always greeted with a friendly face and provided with updates on my child, and with the centre. I value the different events they put on such as grandparents day, Easter parade etc and I value being involved in my child’s learning journey. I would highly recommend Croydon Montessori.
