Education VICÂ introduces Gold Coast Montessori Pre School in Bonogin, for all your education and learning needs.
Gold Coast Montessori Pre School presents lessons of Grace and Courtesy along with those of Practical Life. This is, of course, understandable as social skills should ideally help to oil the wheels of social living and should, in fact spring from the heart.
The exercises of Grace and Courtesy are especially important in preserving culture in the different nations to which Montessori is called.
The special courtesies of each new country to which we take our philosophy should reflect that particular culture and should not be imported by us from our own culture. This should be true also of practical life exercises.
These are two areas in which we must take great pains to reflect the best of each world culture. Between the ages of 2 1/2 -6, the child is indeed in a sensitive period for the learning of good manners.
