The Happy Hearts curriculum is based on the Montessori philosophy. We have chosen to follow this educational approach because it allows children to learn at their own pace and experience by themselves. It enhances creativity and curiosity as the child will find its own way and then ask teachers for help when needed.

One of the greatest benefits of the Montessori Method, particularly during the early learning experience, is the focus on hands-on learning. The emphasis is on concrete, rather than abstract learning, as students work on activities that teach language, math, culture and practical life lessons. Teachers encourage students to concentrate on tasks, and they discourage students from interrupting one another, allowing students to focus on activities until they are properly mastered.

Classes take place in small, highly engaged bursts, keeping children’s minds and creativity engaged.  Children are encouraged to discover, not through technology or through passive instruction, but through engaging with each other and the physical world around them.

We believe that early childhood development prepares a young person for a lifetime of learning and teaching focus on four sets of skills: linguistics, socio-emotional, cognitive and physical.
