Montessori pedagogy, based on scientific observation of child development, allows children to learn by exploring in a prepared environment. At Montessori Gran Bilbao, we encourage independence and self-directed learning, offering spaces designed with specific materials that facilitate manipulation and experimentation. Our mixed-age classrooms promote cooperation and learning among peers, while the Montessori guide acts as a facilitator, respecting the pace of each child. We believe in an education that nurtures curiosity, critical thinking and autonomy, preparing students to face the future with confidence.

Prepared Environment and Montessori Materials

Our environments are designed as a prepared environment, where every detail contributes to the child's autonomous learning. Montessori materials allow for a deep understanding of abstract concepts through direct experience.

Education for Peace and Nonviolent Communication

At the heart of our philosophy is Peace Education. We foster peaceful coexistence and mutual respect through Nonviolent Communication (NVC), teaching children to express their emotions and needs in a conscious and empathetic way.

Connection with Nature and Active Life

Located in a privileged environment, we integrate nature into our educational model, promoting outdoor learning and physical activities that complement the child's comprehensive development. We collaborate with the Artxanda Sports Centre, the Bilbao libraries and other facilities in the area, providing enriching spaces for both learning and sporting activities.
