Schools for Early Childhood Learning
SINCE 2012: NEARLY A DECADE OF SERVING
CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES
Our foundations
We strive to provide a warm welcome to each child and his or her family.
A bilingual English/French international environment
We aspire to bring out children's highest potential.
We lay the foundation for academic learning.
We emphasize the role and importance of creativity.
We ensure impeccable safety and hygiene.
Why start school at age 2?
Preschool gives children an advantage
We provide "preschool" classes specifically for 2-year-olds, based on the Montessori Method and learning materials, in an age-appropriate environment.
Children gain in self-confidence and independence, and make a smoother transition to primary school.
Everyone needs time to adjust
At the beginning of each school year, the children integrate the school gradually, at their own pace.
Toilet learning: a big step forward
Most toddlers have not yet learned to use the toilet on their own. Our teachers care for them during diaper changes and guide them gradually towards independent toilet use.
The goal is for them to be out of diapers by the time they enter primary school.
Creativity, sports, and music
are key to our educational approach
The school's founder, Goli Aryeh, has made weekly art, music, and athletic activities a consistent part of the curriculum since 123 mon école was founded.

Sports
Athletic activity is necessary for the development of essential motor skills, through movement, balance work, and manipulating objects by throwing or catching them.
Small children begin to practice these gestures in their first games.
Group sports activities provide an opportunity to foster team spirit and teach children to have fun within an established set of rules.
Music
Children sharpen their ears and grow familiar with different instruments by listening to a variety of music. Rhythm and beat are explored through a wide range of formats such as rhymes, onomatopoeia, and body movements.
The children have access to claves, tambourines, maracas, and other instruments, providing them an introduction to musical practice.
Art
123 mon école enjoys working with artists because they embody an invaluable open-mindedness and introduce children to a variety of worlds that nourish their imaginations. The photographer Mélissa Boucher, the sculptor India Leire, and the painter Tamaris Borrelly are among those who regularly lead classes at the school.
Children have access to a wide range of materials so that they may explore different creative paths. Possible activities include outdoor mural creation, painting, drawing, sculpture, and discovering artists and artworks.

Progress reports are key to our educational approach
An online progress reporting tool
For each child, teachers provide thorough, constructive, online progress reports that address skills acquisition and overall development.
Laying the foundations for primary school
One of our priorities is aligning the Montessori Method with the French national education program. We have created a key that indicates how "Montessori activities" correspond to the skills recommended by the national education system, so that children's progress reports are comprehensible to all schools.
Instructor reports
Our in-school sports, music, and art instructors also contribute to children's progress reports in order to provide a holistic view of their psychomotor, social, artistic, and musical development.
Management oversight
The management team has a global vision of the school, and keeps a close eye on how each class is progressing.
For parents
Online parent resources
Teachers report on children's skills acquisition with respect to their overall development.
The blog
It can often be difficult for young children to recall or relate details of their day at school. Our secure blog, exclusively for families of enrolled children, provides a way to share in their daily experiences.
A simplified administrative process
Families have access to an online administrative portal where documents such as invoices and caregiver information are stored.

We care for families as well as their children. Our wish is to support parents by providing them with educational tools developed just for them.
Every webinar is made available in podcast form to give parents easy access and repeat listening opportunities.
Examples include: "From Sounds to Languages"; "The Child's Developing Brain: Patience in the Making"; and "How Play Fuels Development."
Health and safety
Ensuring impeccable hygiene
Clean, well-cared-for schools are one of our central concerns. The children and our teams spend their days in a comforting environment with ample natural lighting.
