The Practical Life areas of our classrooms are full of activities that enable children to practise daily life activities, acquiring skills they will use throughout their lifetime.
The summer holidays is a good time to practise these #lifeskills with young children…

Maria Montessori advocated “bringing the inside out and the outside in”.

Outdoors is a valued part of our classroom and our curriculum and we use it for a wide variety of activities. Learning can happen in any environment…

Keep #buttonbatteries away from children to prevent them from being swallowed. This is such an important message to share.

[ChildrensSurgeryFoundation @childrensurgery]

Today is #ButtonBatteryAwareness day and along with the Child Accident Prevention Trust we encourage you to look around your home, identify where button batteries are and ensure they are all kept safely away from children. If swallowed they can be fatal.

All parents should be aware of the dangers of button batteries being swallowed #ChildSafetyWeek #ButtonBatteryAwareness

Happy #MothersDay #MariaMontessori urged us to “Let the children be free; encourage them; let them run outside when it is raining; let them remove their shoes when they find a puddle of water…” Today we thank our mothers for encouraging us to be independent.

Today on International Women’s Day we continue to be inspired by the young children we work with who will become adults in 2040. We hope then the world will be gender equal, free of bias and discrimination and at peace.
Happy International Women’s Day everyone.
