Montessori teaching is complex and elegant, but makes perfect sense to children. They find order and freedom in its method, and time to express themselves creatively in every aspect of play and learning. Proper Montessori teaching requires expertise and familiarity with fundamental principles of child psychology and development. 

The Montessori method captures children's imagination, ensures their attention and inspires their ambition. We use a variety of materials and teaching approaches specially designed to engage children's curiosity and instinct for exploration.

Our curriculum includes and reaches far beyond the national requirements for nursery schools. The Montessori method includes in-depth consideration of grace and courtesy, languages, community, environmental awareness, culture and the arts, enhanced science and maths, and sensorial life.

The Montessori environment fascinates children of all ages. Albany Montessori School presents wonderful new challenges and opportunities for adventure, fun and confidence every day. We know and value each Montessori child as an individual with unique strengths, talents and needs.
