Education: The Path to Independence
The problems of adolescence litter the headlines. Many of these issues stem from early childhood. What can you do now to help your children become self-motivated, independent, and inspired with a lifelong love of learning?
These are questions asked and answered by educators who follow in the inspirational footsteps of Dr Maria Montessori, and a leading Montessori educator will be in Auckland this week speaking on 'The Path to Independence' on behalf of the Maria Montessori Education Foundation (NZ).
When 1200 Montessorians gathered two years ago at Sydney’s International Montessori Congress, the Congress' theme to 'Champion the Cause of All Children' ignited a spark for a group of local Montessorians, resulting in their formation of the Maria Montessori Education Foundation (MMEF), a charitable trust, to establish quality AMI Montessori training in New Zealand.
Their first AMI teacher-training course begins in February and the trainer for that course is Cheryl Ferreira, a leading Montessori trainer from London's Maria Montessori Institute, who will be speaking in Auckland on ‘The Path to Independence.’ You're all invited.
Says MMEF trustee Carol Potts, ”This public address is for all those who genuinely believe in the enormous potential of the young child. The Montessori philosophy of education - now celebrating its centenary year - offers much more than a philosophy of education: It is an essential aid to life. Come along and be inspired!”
CHERYL FERREIRA WILL BE SPEAKING AT:
** The Raye Freedman Arts Centre, Silver
Street, Epsom, 7pm, Wednesday 18th July.
(Only $20 with
a complimentary glass of wine, tea or coffee. Call 623 8111

** Warkworth Primary School Hall, Hill Street, Warkworth, 7:30pm, Monday 23rd July.
