Video: Community Environment

The fundamental aim of Montessori education is to help children become fully-fledged citizens of the world. How do we achieve something so monumental?

One of the active ways we do this is by creating a classroom community, a microcosm of society that utilizes multi-age groups, peer-guided learning and the understanding that everyone in the community needs to take part in its functioning by cooperating with others and participating to the best of their ability.
