The School of Optimism • Suresnes

A unique place to sow the seeds of emotional intelligence.

Optimism is a lifestyle choice that cultivates and develops our capacity to be happy and contribute positively to the world.
Here, children learn from a young age self-confidence, autonomy, and kindness through the Montessori pedagogy.

This personalized pedagogy follows the child’s pace and teaches them to trust themselves. The child progresses freely in their learning, in an environment attentive to their well-being and rhythms.

For older children, we combine Montessori tools with cooperative pedagogy, and in connection with the skills of the National Education system, to prepare a smooth transition to middle school.

Educational Program

We empower children to be active participants in their learning.

Within our Montessori school, we aim to help children discover their ability to overcome challenges, acquire positive and constructive interpersonal skills, and grow with joy and respect for themselves, others, and their environment.

Do things for oneself:

and not to please others, and understand the value of effort.

Experiment:

Dare to try and experiment individually.

Cooperate:

learn through cooperation and group activities.

Be responsible for one's own successes

and those of one's classmates.

Participate in decisions

of the school through the children's council, which meets weekly to share daily challenges and define solutions together.

Train in mediation

to learn how to manage conflicts.

Learn to speak in public

during “show and tell” sessions and intra- and inter-class presentations

Benefit from multi-age grouping

to be both a learner and a mentor.

The School of Optimism • Awakening Class

English in daily life

English is at the heart of all learning, through instruction, activities, and gatherings in English.

Preschool: Each class is supervised by an English-speaking teacher and a French-speaking teacher.

Elementary: English lessons are provided daily, and some subjects are taught in English

Healthy lunch

Eco-citizenship

Children get involved in collective projects they choose themselves, often around a cause: recycling workshops, discovery of biomimicry, forest outings, debate and exchange sessions, etc.

Lunch is also a moment for learning eco-citizenship: setting and clearing the table, getting to know seasonal fruits and vegetables better, prioritizing organic and local produce, and reducing meat consumption (with one vegetarian meal per week).

A dedicated partner supports us daily to offer children healthy and balanced meals. Menus are renewed weekly, with an organization designed for low-carbon logistics.

The Workshops

Optimism Circles

2 hours of weekly workshops, with elementary students (1h for 6-8 and 1h for 8-11), in half-groups every other week, which allows addressing:

  • Self-Relationship: Having self-confidence, identifying and naming emotions, developing resilience, being aligned, speaking positively, feeling secure, developing creativity and intuition

  • Relationship with Others: avoiding labels, valuing, knowing how to comfort, respecting oneself and others, cooperating, communicating with kindness

  • Relationship with the World: expressing gratitude, being open and curious, changing one’s perspective on life, connecting with nature, living in the present moment
