Nurturing Self-Directed Learning

At Blossoms@Bellevue Academy, we passionately embrace the educational philosophy of Maria Montessori, a pioneering educator who revolutionized Early Childhood Education. Her profound words, "Children acquire knowledge through experience in the environment," serve as the cornerstone of our approach.

Stimulating Minds, Active Bodies

Our dedicated team employs the Montessori method to keep young minds engaged and bodies active. This approach ensures that children not only learn but also thrive in a well-rounded educational environment.

Our staff instruct children with integrity and respect, and teach children to respect each other and cooperate to achieve goals together with fun and excitement!

Stay Connected with Your Child's Day

At Blossoms@Bellevue Academy, we value the importance of keeping parents engaged and informed about their child's daily activities. That's why we've partnered with the HiMama platform, a user-friendly app designed for seamless communication and visual updates.

With HiMama, parents have a direct line of communication with us. You can use the app to share essential information about your child's schedule and receive photos and highlights of their day, allowing you to stay engaged and informed about their time at our center.

Please note that we won't use this app to record diaper changes, naps, etc. Our Montessori program is tailored for children 29 months-Kindergarten, who are on their journey towards independence, and these details are typically not required.

Growing with Nature

At Blossoms @ Bellevue, we embrace the Montessori philosophy by integrating the natural environment into our daily activities, tailored to each location's unique features.

At our North Vancouver location, children enjoy 1.5 hours of daily outdoor play at Bridgeman Park and St. Andrew's Park, fostering physical activity, social interaction, and environmental education. These vibrant parks enrich their learning experience, nurturing a sense of wonder and respect for nature.

Our West Vancouver location features an on-site outdoor playground, offering at least 120 minutes of daily outdoor play in a secure environment. This space encourages exploration, gross motor development, and a connection with nature.

Both locations provide enriching outdoor experiences, ensuring every child benefits from our commitment to nature and Montessori principles.
