the age of 6.
The school environment is engaging and
responsive to the child at each stage of his/her In pre-primary years, CMS aims to develop
development.
perceptual, motor, cognitive and socio-
emotional levels of a child, as the basis for
readying him/her for school education, and for
life in society.
We create a happy environment for social
contact with peers, and we deliberately create
opportunities for young children to explore and
learn through play, dance, music, drama, art,
games and sports.
We promote the development of creativity over
memorization. English is taught through Fitzroy
phonics, with spectacular results, with 4 and 5
year olds doing early reading. Learners get some
time on computers for colouring and drawing.
Creative Arts “The senses, being
the explorers of the world,
open the way to knowledge.”
To encourage creative arts such as theatre (drama) and
dance from an early age, CMS provides opportunities – Dr Maria Montessori
with well-trained and experienced teachers at every
campus.
Dance
In energizing dance classes, CMS students are taught
various classical dances like Kathak and Bharatnatyam,
folk dance, as well as western genres like hip-hop,
ballet, and jazz.
Drama
Theatre and drama classes boost confidence in students
as they learn public speaking skills, as well as creativity
as students innovatively think up ways to decorate sets,
make costumes, and get into character for role play.
