After school hours

After School Hour Program

The two Tervuren locations offer the possibility for children to stay in the After School Hours.

International Montessori ‘Savoorke’ at the Bergestraat continues until 18:00 hrs. Children attending this center, who are between the ages of 15 months to six years old, can make use of this service.

At the International Montessori School in the Rotselaerlaan, children from three to eleven can stay until 17:15. By making use of one of the school busses, also children from the Sterrebeek and Wezembeek-Oppem centers have the opportunity to utilize this service.  

The Middle school children often stay longer too. Either completing their homework, performing some research, having a chat with teachers and peers or preparing for their practical events ahead. The environment is theirs and due to their age and maturity they perform these activities independently.

Trained adults, who in general also fulfill other positions within one of the centers, staff the After School Programs. Depending upon the age and capacities of the children present, a playful constructive program is put together. This can vary from gross motor activities, such as football, basketball, diabolos, or devil-sticks, a multitude of art activities, construction activities either inside or outside, board games, music appreciation or sometimes just quietly reading a nice story together.

Whichever activity is chosen during this time of the day, the most important aim of the afternoon is to continue the work that was done earlier in the day; developing and maintaining an outstanding feeling of self worth.
“I’m proud and happy to be myself!“ should be the message that goes home by the end of yet another fulfilling day at school.
