Principal's Message
One would like to know in a few clear words what this Montessori Method really is. If we were to eliminate not only the name “Method” but also its common conceptions, things would become much cleaner. We must consider the human personally and not method of education. For the term “method” , we should substitute something like this: “Help given in order that the human personality may achieve its independence, “or “means offered to deliver the human personality from the oppression of age-old prejudices regarding education. “The defense of the child , the scientific recognition of his/her nature, the social proclamation of his/her rights, must replace the piecemeal ways of conceiving education.
To explain this, there exists an example of a mother eagle. The mother eagle makes its nest at the end of a high mountain cliff where its offspring hatch and grow; the mother nurture its young ones with great love and care until one day it leads the little ones to the edge of the cliff and gives them a push. This push forces the baby eagle to fly. This push puts the little one under compulsion to grow up and soar to the heavenly skies and fly to distant land experiencing the beauty of this universe. This push can be given only with the strength of mind and confidence. Attachment and over indulgence can never enable the child to grow into an adult stage. In this living world everything is active. In our most recent courses, in face, we call the child, “MAN”.

Dr. MARIA MONTESSORI
& the Montessori Method
Maria Montessori is often referred to as “Ahead of her time.” Born in Chiaravalle, Italy in 1870 A.D., and her main studies were in mathematics, physics, natural sciences, biology and medicine led Maria Montessori to apply in the College of Medicine at the University of Rome, and she became the first female certified physician in Italy in 1896 A.D., graduating at the top of her entire class. In addition to her duties as a doctor, Maria Montessori conducted research work in psychiatric medicine and continued her education in philosophy, psychology and education.
In 1906 A.D. Maria Montessori founded the first Casa Dei Bambini, (Children’s House) for children deprived from education. Dr. Maria began their education by instructing the older children on how to help out with everyday chores. Sensorial materials were introduced, and to her surprise she discovered how naturally young children adapted and enjoyed learning everyday tasks. The structure of work and constructive activity rendered the children a true sense of self-worth that they had never before experienced at all in any other method.
The methodology evolved to address these periods with age-appropriate learning tools and activities. Further development of the methodology garnered what Montessori described as the “Cosmic Education” where children would be given the environment and guidance to become the peacemakers of the foreseeable future, existing in perfect harmony with all living beings in a sustainable world. This conjures up as the whole philosophy behind what is now known as the “Montessori Method.”
“It is not true,” says Dr. Montessori, “that I invented what is called the Montessori Method. I have studied the child, I have taken what the child has given me and expressed it, and that is what is called the Montessori Method.
