Casa Mia Montessori Community School Inc.
Small school,
rich experiences,
huge outcomes.
At Casa Mia we know that children learn despite us; we know the quality of the learning is dependent on the quality and intensity of our children’s relationships with their environments; we know the children need to be active, need numerous experiences of the same things; need consistent modelling from others around them and repeated opportunities to apply and practice.
What is Montessori?
Why do we do, what we do?
The Montessori Method of Education was created and refined by Dr. Maria Montessori, one of Italy’s first female medical doctors at the turn of the 20th Century.
The method is based on observation of young children by Montessori, who came to understand the child’s naturally absorbent mind. It is this unique capacity to absorb information which allows children to naturally incorporate experiences in the environment directly into their whole basic character and personality for life.
National Assessment Program - Literacy & Numeracy
The students learning in the Casa Mia setting is recorded through observation, detailed records of progress through the constructivist curriculum and project work.
Protective Behaviours
At Casa Mia, we actively encourage the children to know who they are; what makes them happy and what makes them sad and when they are sad – what are they going to do about it.
We do not refer to school rules but rather to the rights and responsibilities of all members of the community.
‘Children as well as adults have human rights. Children also have the right to special protection because of their vulnerability to exploitation and abuse.’ Unicef
