Global Montessori International School’s hours of operations are 8:00am to 6:00pm, Monday through Friday. We accept children between the ages of 2 to 12 years old. The academic day is from 9:00am to 3:30pm. We also offer half-day programs from 8:00am to 1:30pm. The after-school program is available for the elementary children. Morning child care is offered from 8:00am to 9:00am and the after-school child care is offered from 3:30pm to 6:00pm.

Time Activity

MORNING / AFTERNOON CHILD CARE: For the duration of the program, children will enjoy a structured playing environment where they will be safely monitored by a member of our staff as well as help to organize the day’s lesson, set up the classroom, and do work from the previous lesson.

WORK TIME: This time is spent participating in lessons and completing self-selected work. The activities during this time will change depending on the child’s needs and interests and can vary from whole class participation and discussion to small group work and individual activities.

STORY TIME: This time is spent listening to the teacher read a story as well as taking turns to read. This helps to foster language building as well as imagination and speaking confidence.

LUNCH TIME: The students eat their home-made lunches and enjoy a break from working.

RECESS / OUTDOOR PLAYTIME: A well-rounded healthy student does not only require academic exercise but physical exercise. Outdoor playtime enables the student to enjoy some unstructured and fun release of energy which will help him or her focus during work time.

NAP TIME: The students use this time to calm down after playing. It provides a well-needed rest, as well as re-energizes and focuses them for the afternoon work cycle.
