At The Woods, we provide a foundation that cultivates a lifelong love of learning grounded in peace, respect, independence, and excellence.
“The first duty of an education is to stir up life, but leave it free to develop”
– Maria Montessori
“To aid life, leaving it free, however, that is the basic task of the educator.”
– Maria Montessori
“The greatest development is achieved during the first years of life, and therefore it is then that the greatest care should be taken.”
– Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind
Our toddlers have been taking exciting first steps into their future Children’s House classrooms, exploring new materials, building confidence, and becoming familiar with a new environment.
In Montessori, transitions are approached with intention and care, allowing children time to observe, adjust, and feel secure in their new space. We have loved seeing our Children’s House students warmly welcome new friends and our toddlers step into this new chapter with curiosity and confidence! 🤍✨
🎪✨ What a wonderful time at our Spring Carnival! ✨🎪
