Pre-Primary (Tiger)

The Montessori Reception class, typically for children between the ages of 5 years to 6 years, is the final stage of the Montessori Early Childhood program. The curriculum builds upon the foundations laid in the Play group, Nursery and Kindergarten class and prepares the children for a smooth transition to the elementary years.

The classroom environment is designed to support the child’s increasing independence and sense of responsibility, with materials and activities that foster exploration, creativity, and critical thinking. The curriculum emphasizes language arts, mathematics, cultural studies, and practical life skills.

The children engage in activities that promote literacy and numeracy skills, such as reading, writing, and arithmetic, while also exploring geography, history, and science. The curriculum encourages the children to explore their interests and passions, to ask questions, and to develop a sense of curiosity and wonder about the world around them.

Teachers in the Reception class work closely with the children to support their academic and social development, helping them to develop self-discipline, concentration, and problem-solving skills. The children are encouraged to work collaboratively with their peers, to respect diversity, and to develop empathy and compassion.

Overall, the Montessori Reception curriculum provides a challenging and engaging learning environment that fosters the growth and development of the whole child, including their physical, emotional, social, and cognitive development, while preparing them for a smooth transition to the elementary years.
