“Education is a natural process carried out
by the child
and is not acquired by listening
to words but by experiences in the environment.”

All focus is on the needs of the child. We understand the importance of a developing child and the need to actively challenge that child in order to nurture his or her growth. Our approach is designed to help children with their task of inner development as they grow from childhood to maturity.
• Providing excellence in child care and education.
• Building Character through personal empowerment, integrity and accountability.
• Providing a respectable environment for one’s self, others and the environment.
• Ensuring a diverse, dynamic learning community and service.
Brookhills Montessori School (BMS) values and encourages the development of the child’s sense of independence, self-discipline and confidence in a safe, supportive, culturally and academically diverse environment as guided by the Montessori philosophy.
• BMS is a child-centered, parent-inclusive school that provides a stimulating environment that is very unique. Our school accepts children regardless of race, national origin or religious beliefs.
• A racial and ethnic mixture is considered important to the health of the school and to the full social development of the child.
Activities promote the development of social skills, emotional growth, and physical coordination as well as cognitive preparation. The holistic curriculum allows the child to experience the joy of learning and to develop self-esteem and independence. In order for self-directed learning to take place, the whole learning environment – room, materials, and social climate – must be supportive of the learner, called the “Prepared Environment.” The teacher known and addressed primarily in a Montessori environment as a “Directress or guide” provides necessary resources, including opportunities for children to function in a safe and positive climate. Practical Life lessons which form the foundation for Montessori education are designed to help children learn social skills. They learn how to care for themselves, the environment and others. For example children learn how to pour and scoop, use kitchen utensils, food preparation, dish washing, sweeping activities, wash their hands, and other self-care practices. While participating in these activities the children are learning movement, concentration, muscular control, independence, and hand to eye coordination.
Our foreign language program provides an introduction to the sounds of other languages. Through songs, stories, and educational activities, children learn vocabulary for colors, shapes, numbers, days, months, and simple phrases. Daily exposure generates useful lifelong knowledge and skills, and encourages a respect for diversity. We teach French, Setswana, Sign Language and Chinese.
The class involves weighing, measuring, carefully following directions and observing materials change from one state to another. It also encourages eye-hand coordination, sensory integration, patience and self-reliance. Your child will also learn basic nutrition, kitchen safety, table setting, manners, basic math and some geography. They will not only prepare foods like pies, pizza, lemonade, but also discover new tastes with our Chef and the exciting world of food!
Think of it as a kind of laboratory science! Like crumb stash, it exposes the child to all kinds of learning skills to foster love for learning as well as how things evolve in the world around us. Children make things like snow out of diapers, clay out of bread, volcanic eruptions and lots more.
Our Computer software designed exclusively for Montessori schools by our friends at MECS USA brings the Montessori materials to the computer and continues to support the learning children experience in the classroom. Children learn early computer skills which aids in hand eye coordination.
