Who we are
The Montessori Academy was founded in 2018 by the “Associazione Montessori Bilingue”, as a service offered to members under art. 2 of its statute. The school is located in Sotto il Monte Papa Giovanni XXIII in the province of Bergamo. We host children from 3 to 6 years old (Children's House) and from 6 to 12 years old (elementary school). A team of AMI-certified teachers (Association Montessori Internationale - founded by Maria Montessori in 1929 - an international organization that promotes the authentic Montessori method) proposes a child-centered approach. It incorporates free choice of activities within a prepared environment where students learn concepts by working with materials rather than through direct instruction.
Our mission
Our mission and primary objective is the application of the authentic Montessori method. Our aim is to allow the development of cognitive, social and moral abilities of each child so that he or she becomes a responsible, autonomous adult, respectful of himself or herself and others.
Our values
-
Respect for oneself, for others, for our world
-
Integrity in everything we do
-
Patience with child development
-
Each of us is an ambassador of peace
"The first thing required of a teacher is that he be rightly disposed for his task."
Maria Montessori
