Our Educational Approach

The Montessori Approach

The Montessori method emphasizes the importance of autonomy, freedom, and learning through direct experience. Children are encouraged to explore and discover in an environment that stimulates curiosity and critical thinking.

Bilingualism

Bilingualism in children offers numerous benefits, both cognitive and social. Bilingual children develop superior language skills and enhanced problem-solving abilities. Moreover, exposure to different cultures enriches their experience and fosters an open-minded attitude.

City Excursions

School trips provide opportunities to learn in a setting different from the classroom, stimulating curiosity and interest. They also promote socialization among classmates, strengthening bonds and improving group dynamics.

The Motor Approach

The motor approach integrates physical movement with the psychological and cognitive aspects of the child. It focuses on developing harmony between mind and body, supporting emotional, social, and motor growth.

A family, not just a school. A lot of love and a lot of listening for children (and parents) who every day not only learn super interesting things but learn to love themselves and others. Emmer school, the school for children... and also for parents

Emmer School is much more than a preschool: it’s a place where children grow up happy, curious, and peaceful. The staff is highly qualified, always attentive, and able to build trusting relationships both with the children and their families.

I’m the father of two twins who attend Emmer School, and I couldn’t be happier. The teachers are attentive, caring, and competent. The children go to school happily every day and come back full of enthusiasm. It’s truly a stimulating and welcoming environment. Highly recommended!
