Ajyaal Montessori, founded in 2006, was born from a deep desire to offer our children the best possible bilingual education in their most critical formative years. Like all mothers, we wanted our children’s unique and individual strengths to be recognized, developed, and nurtured in a positive and empowering environment. Montessori education is a highly developed and widely tested method that encourages the special abilities of each child. Celebrating its one-hundredth anniversary in 2007, Montessori is one of the leading educational theories and methods around the world. It has been shown to foster personal independence, high self-worth, deep thinking, concern for others, and a love for learning and school. We strive in every way to create a community of faculty, staff, and parents who are passionate about child advancement, educational excellence, and cultural enrichment. We aim to set a new standard for early childhood education in the region, informed by the Montessori Method and the latest science on child development. At Ajyaal, we strive to create a place of excellence, of unsurpassed standards for the provision of quality childcare, where beauty is abundant most notably in the hearts and souls of the people who work here. Most educators and psychologists today agree that the single most important period in the development of a person's intelligence occurs between birth and age six. A child's mind is extremely absorbent and his curiosity is at a peak during these early years. When properly nourished and stimulated, the child's mind forms patterns for learning that serve him well throughout his life. The Montessori system of preschool education is one of the most effective methods to guide a child through these critical years. To a child, the world can be overwhelming, big, complex, and confusing. The Montessori classroom is an environment that is carefully prepared to entice the child to proceed at his own pace from simple activities to more complex ones. Through this process, the child's natural curiosity is satisfied and he begins to experience the joy of discovering the world around him. Children come into the school, greet the teachers, put away their school bags, and begin their day. They move about the classroom from activity to activity, unrolling a small rug for work on the floor or sitting at a table, talking or working with a friend, or choosing to work alone. The materials in the classroom are grouped into the areas of Practical Life, Sensorial, Math, Language, Art, and Cultural. Throughout the day teachers give individual presentations of the activities in these areas. Towards the end of the morning, the children gather in a circle to hear a story read aloud, share news, and sing songs. Each day ample time is spent playing outside. At Ajyaal, we encourage good eating habits to ensure that our children enjoy a happy and healthy lifestyle and in so doing, get the most of their school day. Each parent receives a "Lunch Box Ideas Leaflet" on our Orientation Day at the beginning of the year. View full school
