We will be celebrating our 15th year this year and look forward to watching our children gain independence and reach their individual goals.
Every child that passes through our doors possesses their own unique personality and learning style, we encourage them to explore freely and to have confidence in their abilities.
We are excited to start a new school year and have so much to share with the children in all areas of the curriculum. We look forward to getting to know new families as we work together to make the experience at our school unforgettable by providing a Learning Foundation for Life.
Our Montessori Philosophy
Village Montessori School in Flemington educates children in the manner formulated by the famous Italian Physician and Educator, Maria Montessori (1870-1952) Dr. Montessori felt that the goal for early childhood education should not be to fill the child with facts, but rather to cultivate his own natural desire to learn.
"There are many things which no teacher can convey to a child of three, but a child of five can do it with the utmost of ease."
Our carefully prepared environment fosters learning in all areas. It is a place where the child can do things for himself/herself. The Montessori environment helps bring out the potential of each individual and is constructed to satisfy his physical, mental and spiritual needs. Within an atmosphere of order, each child experiences the excitement of learning by his own choice.
With the Montessori method, children have the freedom to think for themselves. Instead of reinforced learning of facts, they can discover what works the best for them, not what a teacher dictates.
