Welcome to our Early Years Section
We understand that the foundation of a child’s education is of utmost importance, hence our section provides the essential foundation education to children in their early years.

Our Primary Program at Apata Montessori School is designed for children ages 3 to 6, laying a strong foundation for lifelong learning. Through our child-centered approach, we create a nurturing environment where young learners can explore, grow, and develop their unique talents.

Hands-On Learning

In our Primary classrooms, children engage in hands-on, experiential learning that fosters independence and curiosity. Using carefully designed Montessori materials, students explore concepts in math, language, science, and practical life skills. This active learning approach enables children to fully understand concepts through direct experience.

Focus on Individual Growth

Our teachers work closely with each child, allowing them to progress at their own pace and according to their interests. This individualized approach nurtures confidence, self-motivation, and a sense of accomplishment as students master new skills and ideas.


Social and Emotional Development

We believe that social and emotional growth is as important as academic learning. Our Primary Program emphasizes kindness, respect, and community, helping children develop positive social skills and a sense of empathy. With activities that promote collaboration, children learn to work with others, share ideas, and appreciate diversity.

A Balanced Curriculum

Our curriculum includes literacy, math, cultural studies, science, and art, balanced with play and outdoor time. This holistic approach helps children develop physically, intellectually, socially, and emotionally in a joyful, supportive environment.





Preparing for Future Success

The Primary Program at Apata Montessori equips children with essential skills for a smooth transition into elementary education and beyond. By fostering a love for learning, critical thinking, and self-confidence, we set our students on a path of academic and personal success.
