My son started PS in public school and then joined the Montessori school "Les rayons de soleil" in PS. He did his kindergarten there and is now in CP. I particularly appreciate :
open, constructive dialogue with the teaching team and with management, in "solution-seeking" mode (if necessary).
caring for children
the serious approach to learning
the forest outings
the acquisition of an adjoining plot of land to give the children a larger playground in which to develop projects...
But that's just my vision as an adult and as a mom. I think the most important thing is my son's vision and feelings. And every day, for the past 4 years, he's been delighted to get up in the morning to go to school. They've instilled in him a desire to learn, and he's discovering all the subjects with great pleasure.
Inclusive school that listens to children and parents.
When our child comes back from abroad, he can continue to speak English and French.
The teachers are experienced, dedicated and professional. They adapt to the child and not the other way around. Montessori methods and tools, so different from a very top-down French-style classroom.
The canteen is good, but there are no classes on Wednesdays.
Our child is happy to go to school and learn every day.
Good spirit, good team and nice community.
Excellent Montessori school! Very well-trained Montessori teachers, an available and caring team. The school program is very well followed. The children evolve in a real environment. We are very happy with the school and have total confidence in our 2 daughters who attend. A very good school to recommend!
