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.

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!
