Our Vision and Mission
Casa opened in August 2011. ‘Casa’ is derived from the Latin word ‘home’. It is a Dutch-English Montessori children’s centre, where school and childcare are integrated. International Montessori education according to the Association Montessori International (AMI) forms the basis of education at Casa.
Mission
Casa's mission is: “Through the child to a better world.”
– Education for Life.
At Casa we nurture the inner strength of children, so that they can contribute to a responsible and sustainable society.
Vision
Based on the values of courage and connection, we offer children a second home; a ‘Casa’. A rich, orderly, broadly oriented environment, in which children can move purposefully and freely and in which our guidance meets the developmental needs of each child.
Ambition
- The child is a world citizen and takes responsibility for his own actions, which contributes to world peace.
- The child has a learning attitude.
- The child is self-guided in the learning process.
- The child can make independent choices, reflect, think creatively and deal with change.
- The child masters the basic skills so that they are well functioning citizens of the world.
- The child is aware that he or she is part of a greater whole and that he or she is dependent on it.
- The child can think and act independently.
Casa aims to be a place where your children are encouraged to explore the world around them, broaden their horizons and knowledge, and develop their talents. A place where they are cherished, where they are can be free to work at their own pace – in essence a place of learning your children would enjoy being in.
