The Montessori environment prepared for infants referred as “The Nido” (“the Italian for nest”). The infant room is designed carefully around the children. We create peaceful, supportive, and safe environment for the children’s passion, curiosity, and independence to grow. As Safety is the most important to us, the environment includes developmentally appropriate furniture and materials.

After they begin to walk, children join the toddler group where their primary motor coordination, independence and language are cultivated. Rather than a classroom, it is a nurturing community where very young children experience their first structured contact with other children

The 3 to 6 year old child is undergoing a process of self-construction. The pre-school environment serves this drive abundantly, bringing the world to the child. Globes, maps, songs, landforms, collections of pictures of life in different cultures, and much more, is offered, with the aim of helping the child to grow as an individual appreciating the larger context of his or her world. The resources and activities in the Three to Six Years environment are organised into four main areas:

• the exercises of practical life
• the exercises of the senses
• language
• mathematics

At Discovery Cove, in our kindergarten program, we also prepare children for School readiness. Even though the room set up is same with state of art material and purposed built activities, our educators carefully plan and put together a program based on individual child’s development so that they can confidently move to any school setting. Our program includes foundational knowledge amd skills for smooth transition.
