Why Choose Montessori?

All children want to learn. With the freedom to investigate the world around them, they will become active learners.
In the Montessori environment, children have the freedom (within limits) to choose their own activities. With this freedom of choice, children will become enthusiastic learners and this will aid them to develop self-discipline. 

The Montessori environment is child-centered. Children progress at their own pace. Lessons are given on individual basis or in small groups. This enables the teacher to discover more about each individual child and their inner development. Children develop best in a caring environment where they are allowed to express themselves and when learning experiences interest them and are part of their world.

The Montessori environment is a nourishing place for children. It is designed to meet the child's need for self-construction. The environment is responsive to the continually changing needs of the growing child. Expression is encouraged through art/craft and drama.

A positive self-concept is the foundation for learning success.
The child's self esteem is central to Montessori education. At Townsend Montessori, we believe in providing an all round learning environment which will help the child to develop physically, cognitively, socially and emotionally.
