Welcome to Hopscotch Montessori Toronto

Every student in our school is a global citizen exposed to various languages, cultures, and forms of art. We value the understanding of each other's cultures, beliefs, individualities, ideas, and needs, as our community consists of respectful international families with a multitude of geographical and cultural backgrounds. We approached the choice of pedagogy and methods of early development from the perspectives of both professionals and parents to reinvent education, creating a place where children are eager to discover the world around them and find their unique place in it.

Hopscotch Montessori continuously develops educational methods by taking part in meaningful educational seminars and conferences, providing a progressive and up-to-date experience in all our schools.

Our school provides a welcoming environment of warmth, care and freedom to encourage students to think freely and solve problems independently to reveal their strengths, while also feeling a sense of belonging. We help every child identify their talents and interests by embracing their curiosity and joy. Being comfortable in their surrounding environment allows for the further development of emotional intelligence, thinking and leadership skills that are necessary for a child to embrace.

After rigorous research and analysis of internationally respected neuropsychologists' leading practices specializing in early childhood education, we chose the Montessori Method. The Montessori Method is based on the principles of comprehensive child development, which considers the prepared environment, the child's psychological and physical health as essential for installing an interest in education. It also frequently incorporates children of different ages and child-led activities to encourage independence, resulting in quicker development of skills. We are members of the AMS (American Montessori Schools) society, matching the international standards of education.

Our school encourages child-driven independence to promote self-esteem, confidence and motivation in order to equip our students with the skills and attitude to take on the world and thrive. Children can grow up feeling empowered and safe in their abilities to make sound choices. When their teachers and parents trust them to be self-directed, they learn to trust themselves, ultimately becoming happy and productive members of their communities.

Child-driven independence

To enable students to expand, reach their potential and educate them to the highest level of academic achievement, Hopscotch Montessori promotes academic discovery in the classroom and beyond. Our classrooms are beautiful spaces that are fully equipped with age-appropriate Montessori materials designed to stimulate the child’s natural curiosity to explore the world around them. Hopscotch Montessori education can instill the motivation, decision-making and self-reliance that will prepare children for success in school, college, career, and life.

Academic discovery

We view creativity as a natural ability that is developed through the process of child development. Hopscotch Montessori supports the development of creativity in numerous ways. We nurture a creative and enthusiastic environment to help our students identify, develop and showcase their talents and interests, setting children up for continuous development of these skills in the future.

Creative exploration

Hopscotch Montessori School empowers children to become capable individuals who will be responsible stewards of their own inner and external resources. Our philosophy of sustainable mindset has helped them avoid falling into default thinking, opening them to explore new ways of problem solving, collaborating, and relating to peers. Encouraged to think out-of-the box from an early stage helps children find internal fulfillment, professional productivity, and personal connection throughout their lives. Additionally, our children develop a love and respect for nature and the environment, having been continually engaged in their outdoor surroundings.
