Libert\u00e9 Pre-school & Cr\u00e8che provides a learning environment where children are allowed the freedom to learn in a manner most suited to them as individuals. We follow the internationally recognised AMI Montessori curricula and incorporate elements from both the British International (Cambridge) and CAPS curricula for our Grade R class.<\/span><\/span><\/h2><\/header>

A holistic approach<\/span><\/span><\/h4><\/header>
<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div>
<\/p>\n

Modern cognitive science (the science of learning and thinking) has identified a set of universal skills called executive functions that form the basis of intelligent human behaviour. At Libert\u00e9 school, we explicitly focus on developing these skills by allowing children the freedom to follow their interests and passions and learn in a manner most suited to them as individuals. We foster a lifelong love of learning by identifying and taking advantage of learners\u2019 natural curiosity, strengths and talents. When humans do what they love, learning happens naturally.<\/p>\n

A Simple yet Powerful Idea:<\/span><\/span><\/h4>
Adapting our educational approach to each individual child, instead of expecting them to adapt to the education system or method. <\/i><\/div><\/header>
<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div>
<\/p>\n

Using children\u2019s unique interests and natural curiosity to develop their cognitive skills within a carefully prepared, secure and stimulating environment with children of different ages, where teachers provide warm and supportive guidance towards autonomy and independence.<\/p>\n
