The AGM programme is based on the work of physician and educator, Dr. Maria Montessori, who, through research and studies, helped to change the course of education in the early 1900s. Montessori recognizes that children learn in many different ways and at their own pace. Montessori is consciously designed to recognize and address different learning styles, helping students learn to study most effectively. We work in the following domains:
Practical Life
Sensorial
Language
Math
Cultural

In celebration of the educators who make every school day special, this month we’re featuring Llama Llama Loves His Teacher by Anna Dewdney. 🍎💛

In this story, Llama Llama celebrates his teacher and the special role she plays in making the classroom a place to learn, explore, create, and grow. 🦙📖

Stories like this are a wonderful way to encourage children to think about the people who support them each day and recognize the kindness, care, and guidance their educators bring to the classroom. 🌱✨

📖 Read it together this month and ask your child: What do you love about your teacher?

Did you know? Early childhood educators play a role far beyond the classroom—they shape healthier, more equitable futures. ✨

UNESCO reports that investments in early childhood care and education deliver a 13% return through better health, stronger economies and richer communities.

This October at AVMS we say THANK YOU to the dedicated educators who build environments of curiosity, independence and care every single day.

🍎✨ October’s Family Challenge is here! ✨🏫

This month, it’s time to switch roles! Invite your child to pretend to be the teacher and create their very own “at-home classroom.” 📚✏️

Let them decide what they want to teach you—whether it’s a favourite classroom activity, a song, something they’ve learned, or even their own made-up lesson!

Playing teacher gives children a fun opportunity to share what they’ve learned, practice communication and leadership, and build confidence while giving families a little glimpse into what stands out to them during their school day. 🌱💛

We’d love to see your little teacher in action! DM us a photo of your at-home classroom for a chance to be featured on our account. 📸🍎

🧡 September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a day to honour the children who never returned home, Survivors of residential schools, their families, and Indigenous communities. It is also an opportunity to listen, learn, reflect, and continue conversations about Canada’s history and the importance of reconciliation.

Learn Through Stories! You and your little ones can continue learning together with Today Is Orange Shirt Day by Phyllis Webstad and Natassia Davies. 📚🧡 Through a story, children can begin learning about the meaning of Orange Shirt Day and why Every Child Matters.

💛✨ It’s time for our September Parent Question! ✨💛

What is a kind gesture your child gave or received this month? 🌱

Maybe they helped a friend, shared something special, offered a hug, included someone in play, or were on the receiving end of a thoughtful gesture. No act of kindness is too small! 🤝💕

These everyday moments help children develop empathy, compassion, and respect for others, while showing them just how meaningful a little kindness can be.

Comment below and share your child’s kind moment with us! We can’t wait to hear your stories. 💬✨

📚✨ Author Spotlight of the Month ✨📚

This month, we’re featuring I Like This, You Like That by Linda Ashman, illustrated by Eve Coy—a sweet, rhyming story about friendship, differences, and finding common ground. 💛

Through two young friends who discover that they don’t always like the same things, the story shows children that we can have different interests, preferences, and opinions while still appreciating and caring for one another. 🌈🤝

Books like I Like This, You Like That can help encourage conversations about kindness, acceptance, respect, and celebrating what makes each of us unique—values that connect beautifully with building a caring and inclusive classroom community. 🌱✨

Kindness and courtesy are at the heart of Montessori education. From offering a friend a turn to saying “excuse me” when passing, children practice kindness in small, consistent ways that shape how they treat others — and themselves.

A long-term study highlighted by UC Berkeley’s Greater Good Science Center followed children from childhood into adulthood. Those who showed more pro-social skills — like helping, sharing, and cooperating — were more likely to succeed in school and work and less likely to face serious challenges and troubles later in life. Teaching kindness today truly supports their future tomorrow.
