Nursery teachers

We employ only qualified, experienced and state certified Montessori nursery teachers. On the individual care of the children we place great value.

Inclusion of parents

We encourage parents to participate actively in the development of their children and to visit our nursery after consultation with the teachers. Parent meetings and parent evenings are organized by teaching staff.

Food

At 10:00 in the morning the children enjoy  freshly prepared snacks. At noon they receive a warm and healthy meal.

Curriculum

In addition to the standard curriculum of the Tanzanian government we teach the children in the key elements of the Montessori principles.
