Maria Montessori Art School - The Art of Learning

Wishing a joyful 3rd Birthday to our new student, Austin Sage! 🍃

A "sage" is one who listens and learns from the world with a peaceful heart. As you begin your journey with us, we pray that your roots grow deep in kindness and your spirit branches out in wonder 💚

"The child is endowed with unknown powers, which can guide us to a radiant future. If what we really want is a new world, then education must take as its aim the development of these hidden possibilities."~ Maria Montessori

“He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green." ~Jeremiah 17:8

The Art of Learning: Heart, Head, and Hands

In the Montessori tradition, education is a work of the spirit. At Maria Montessori Art School, we nourish the child’s inner life by integrating three essential pillars:
💜The Heart: Cultivating empathy and "Grace and Courtesy." We foster a sense of peace, allowing the child’s emotional self to flourish in a community of respect.
🧠The Head: Igniting wonder through
✨”Cosmic Education." By exploring the vastness of the universe, the child discovers their unique purpose and a deep gratitude for life.
🙏🏽The Hands: Engaging in purposeful, tactile work. Through the hands, the mind finds focus and the spirit finds calm, leading to a profound sense of self-mastery.

When a child’s environment is prepared with beauty and order, their creative expression becomes a sacred act of self-discovery~a reflection of the divine craftsmanship within us all.

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." ~Ephesians 2:10

☀️ Summer of Discovery: Now Enrolling!

"Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God." ~Luke 18:16

We are praising The Lord for a beautiful school year and preparing for a summer of purposeful growth!

“Watching a child makes it obvious that the development of his mind comes through his movements." — Maria Montessori

This April & May, we are prioritizing Active Play, physical milestones, and healthy habits to build strong bodies and happy minds.

Here is a “look-back” of our past Summer Programmes, and the beautiful children who we hold dear in our hearts.

Reflecting on a Wonderful Celebration for Ozzy! 🎈

It was such a joy to see our sweet, helpful, and bright boy surrounded by so much love.

Ozzy, you have a natural intelligence and a heart that is always ready to lend a hand to your younger school siblings.

Watching you grow is truly our greatest adventure.

“To give a child liberty is not to abandon him to himself... the child is a soul which is unfolding."
~Maria Montessori, The Montessori Method

Seeing your soul "unfold" through your curiosity and your kindness is a gift we never take for granted.

"But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me..." ~Jeremiah 9:24

May all your birthdays be filled with God’s blessings 🙏🏽We adore you sweet-love 😘

There is a unique holiness in the arrival of a child.

This week, our halls feel a little fuller and our spirits a little brighter as we also welcome Haru, Austin Sage, and Yuna to our classroom community.

Each of these children arrives not as a blank slate, but as a finished soul with a unique destiny already written within them. We are honored to walk beside them as they uncover it.

From the Heart of Maria Montessori:
“The child’s soul is a vast and hidden treasure... We must help the child to act for himself, to will for himself, to think for himself; this is the art of those who aspire to serve the spirit."
~The Discovery of the Child

Spiritual Foundation:
"For you shall go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and the hills before you shall break forth into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands." ~Isaiah 55:12

We pray that Haru, Austin Sage, and Yuna feel this "breaking forth of joy" every morning they step through our doors.

May they always know they are led by peace and surrounded by a creation that celebrates their presence.

Welcome home, little ones. 🕊️

Natch, Lucas, & MJ - Welcome!

We believe you arrived to our school with a unique purpose already inside you.

We are simply here to help you uncover those "good works" and provide the space for your spirits to lead the way.

We don't just see students; we see future "spiritual builders" to help shape the new world.

“An education capable of saving humanity is no small undertaking; it involves the spiritual development of man." ~Maria Montessori

“For you are God’s handiwork, created to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." ~Ephesians 2:10

Happy Health Month! 🌿

🌻There’s no better way to kick off a season of wellness than by getting our hands in the dirt and soaking up some vitamin D in our school garden🌻

~Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind

🍉Happy Health & Nutrition Month! 🥦

This March, we are celebrating the gift of healthy bodies and growing minds.

“The child’s development follows a path of successive stages, for which our help, or even the abstract knowledge of them, is necessary." ~Maria Montessori, The Discovery of the Child

When we provide nutritious food and active play, we give our children the best "help" possible to reach their next milestone!

🌱 Caring for the Temple
"…do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit... therefore honor God with your body." ~1 Corinthians 6:19-20

This month’s highlights:
🍓 Exploring new flavors in our "Rainbow Snack" sessions.
🏃‍♂️ Extra outdoor time to strengthen our growing muscles.
💧 Learning why water is our body's best friend!

♥️Small Hands, Big Hearts at Our Children’s House♥️

How was your ♥️ day?

In our classrooms, “family" goes beyond the home.

Whether it’s “older siblings” guiding the younger ones or BFFs sharing a moment of discovery, the bond in our multi-age community is a beautiful thing to witness.

“The children of different ages help one another. The younger ones see what the older ones are doing... and the older ones give [explanations] gladly."
~Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind (Chapter 22)

“A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity." ~Proverbs 17:17

From rolling rugs to sharing snacks, our students are learning that the greatest lesson of all is .

✨ Joy: A Beautifully Unique Spirit ✨

Joy is a true free spirit. She moves through the world on her own terms, possessing an independent heart and a deep, soulful connection to animals and birds that is honestly magical to witness.

Lately, we’ve been celebrating her growth in focus and listening. She is discovering that her inner world is just as vast as the one she explores outside.

As Dr. Maria Montessori wrote in her book ~The Absorbent Mind:
“The child has a mind able to absorb knowledge. He has the power to teach himself."

Watching her teach herself how to navigate the world with more intention is our greatest blessing.

We trust the unique path God has set for her, keeping Isaiah 43:19 close to our hearts:
“See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland."

We are honored to be part of your magical journey Joy! We love you very much♥️
