Our approach
At Dawmouse Montessori, our approach to education is rooted in respect for each child as an individual. Every child is capable, curious, and eager to learn, but each in their own unique way.
Guided by the Montessori principles, we create an environment that empowers the child to discover and develop at their own pace.
At Dawmouse we believe that early years education is not simply about acquiring knowledge, but about developing the habits and foundations for a lifelong love of learning.
Play is important. Each morning, our classrooms and outdoor spaces are thoughtfully prepared with a wide range of materials and activities that are designed to engage their growing minds in a way fun and practical way.
The materials play a central role – be it exploring language, mathematics, or understanding the world around them, they learn by doing, in their own time, and in their own way.
Alongside this they develop other essential life skills such as concentration, problem-solving, collaboration and discipline.
The mixed-age class further enriches their development, allowing younger children to learn from older peers, while older children grow a sense of leadership, responsibility and empathy.
We place a big emphasis on nurturing the whole child, in the broadest sense, at Dawmouse. Areas such as healthy eating, emotional wellbeing, manners, and celebrations are all woven into daily life at Dawmouse.
