Our Story
A school born from a conviction
It all started when we became parents
Becoming parents changed everything. We watched our child learn with disarming ease, driven by natural curiosity and joy, and we asked ourselves: how do we preserve this flame when school begins?
The discovery of Montessori
Searching for an educational approach aligned with our values - respect for the child, trust in their abilities, the pleasure of learning - we discovered Montessori pedagogy. We trained in 2017, convinced this method was best suited to meeting children's real needs.
The school takes root in Nguérigne
After a first experience in Dakar, an opportunity arose on the Petite Côte. We designed and built our own space from scratch, conceived to integrate the outdoors and nature at the heart of learning. Today, the Nguérigne Bambara school welcomes three environments - from 18 months to 12 years - in a bright and lush setting, just minutes from Ngaparou.
"Let us not raise our children for today's world. This world will have changed by the time they grow up. And so we must above all help the child cultivate their faculties for creation and adaptation."
Maria Montessori
A living project
The school continues to grow and evolve, carried by a team of committed educators and an active parent community. Each year brings new projects, discoveries and precious moments. We are proud to contribute to an education that respects and values every child.
