BH Opens Montessori School for Refugees

The Center supports early academic and behavioral needs of the youngest refugee and other vulnerable Jordanian children (ages 3- 6) through an innovative and proven early childhood curriculum inspired by Montessori methods. The methods provide a holistic education that develops children physically, socially, emotionally and cognitively. We believe that each child has limitless worth and potential, and this ‘approach to life’, as Dr. Montessori put it, is at the heart of her philosophy. By providing a nurturing environment where we can cater to the personal and intellectual development of each child, we can enable them to develop to their full potential. In addition, this approach provides opportunities for Syrian and Jordanian children to appreciate the differences that make each of them unique in a socially cohesive context.
