Benmont Montessori, is dedicated to providing a safe & stimulating learning environment for children in the age group of 2 to 6 years, consistent with the values and principles of Dr. Maria Montessori, who created her own model after extensive research with children. The mixed age classroom encourages children of different ages to interact with, help and learn from each other in a healthy and holistic environment. Montessori is an approach to early education that focuses on the immense capacity of children to absorb information when given the freedom and independence to learn at their own pace. The belief is that children will learn through play and discovery, rather than by instruction.
