Located in the heart of Maisons-Laffitte, just an 8-minute walk from the station, the International Montessori School Les Rayons de Soleil welcomes children into an accessible, calm, and secure environment, conducive to their well-being and development.
Housed in an independent loft of over 1,000 m², the school offers bright spaces carefully designed for the comfort of children. It features a private outdoor area as well as an indoor motor skills room, allowing students to move, play, and thrive throughout the day, regardless of the weather.
The school offers integrated daily bilingualism, led by a French and English-speaking educational team, fostering a natural and progressive immersion in both languages.
A member of the Association Montessori de France, the school is committed to a faithful and rigorous practice of Montessori pedagogy, based on its essential principles: mixed age groups, the presence of AMI-certified educators, complete pedagogical materials, and long, uninterrupted work periods that promote concentration, autonomy, and the joy of learning.

Children learn through experimentation, thanks to Montessori materials and interactions between different ages. This approach fosters curiosity and progressively builds the foundations for reading, writing, and mathematics.
At this stage, materials evolve to deepen learning. French, English, mathematics, science, and general culture are developed to strengthen critical thinking, autonomy, and project-based work.
Take the time to virtually visit our school, inquire about our fees, and enroll your child to offer them a unique and fulfilling educational experience.

Cube Education brings together 8 schools in Île-de-France, united by a common mission: to unlock each child’s potential. Child-centered pedagogy, small class sizes, integrated bilingualism — to grow today and prepare for the world of tomorrow.
A trusted educational partner: dedicated teams, a quality environment, and a network organization that guarantees coherence, stability, and continuity throughout schooling.
An inclusive school that listens to both children and parents.
Returning from abroad, our child can continue to speak both English and French.
The teachers are experienced, dedicated, and professional. They adapt to the child rather than the other way around. Montessori methods and tools are used, which differ from a very top-down French-style classroom.
The canteen is good; however, there are no classes on Wednesdays.
Our child is happy to go to school and learn every day.
Great spirit, a good team, and a lovely community.
"My son started preschool in a public school and then joined the Montessori school Les Rayons de Soleil during his first year. He completed his preschool years there and is now in first grade. I particularly appreciate:
the open and constructive dialogue with the teaching team and the management, always in 'solution-seeking' mode when needed
the kindness shown towards the children
the serious approach to learning
the forest outings
the acquisition of adjacent land to provide the children with a larger playground and to develop projects there...
But that is just my perspective as an adult and a mother. I think the most important thing is my son's perspective and feelings. And every day for the past 4 years, he has been delighted to get up in the morning to go to school. They have passed on to him the desire to learn, and he discovers all subjects with great pleasure."
Excellent Montessori school! Teachers are very well trained in Montessori, and the team is available and caring. The academic program is very well followed. Children develop within a truly supportive framework.
"We are very happy with the school and have total confidence for our two daughters who are enrolled there. A very good school to recommend!"
