Projekti kirjeldus

"Montessori and Friends” operates several institutions in and around Berlin. The pedagogical concept is based on the principle of progressive education created by Maria Montessori as well as the latest pedagogical insights. Montessori Kinderhaus am Wannsee offers high quality early development in a multicultural Setting. Up to 30 kids are taken care of from 8am to 5pm. Welcomed are children from 2 years up to primary school age from different cultures; the group operates bilingually in English and German. Due to its location, the nature plays a big role in the daily life of the kindergarten and children are taught to treat the environment well. Children and teachers have a close relationship characterized by trust, shared experiences, and intensive communication. Kinderhaus am Wannsee is located closely to the International Montessori School – staff work closely together and the children are prepared for the bilingual primary school; shared activities are very common.
