Welcome toThe Big Kindness Tree
Inspiring Montessori Education for your child
At The Big Kindness Tree, we are committed to providing an authentic, inspiring Montessori Education for your child. We deliver the proven Montessori method along with phonics-based Language development. Our integrated and inclusive mixed-age and child-centric classrooms ensure children are equipped with life skills and academic skills needed to not just make them ready for mainstream school but ready for life as well.
Our classrooms are designed to be functional and aesthetically pleasing allowing children freedom of movement and choice. Children are allowed to choose meaningful and challenging work that captures their interest, leading to engagement, intrinsic motivation, sustained attention, and a sense of responsibility to oneself and others. This child-directed work is supported by the design and flow of the Montessori classroom, which is created to ignite each child’s curiosity and to provide the opportunity to work in calm, uncluttered spaces either individually or with peers.
-
Our vision is to nurture and develop the whole child by creating an authentic “prepared” learning environment for a life of purpose, integrity so they can bring a positive difference to the world by fostering peace and harmony.
Our mission is to create a joyous, supportive environment focused on nurturing children emotionally, socially, intellectually, physically, and with the best attributes of human character so they may reach their fullest potential as kind, independent, curious, compassionate and confident individuals.

I would like to thank Brunda and teachers for conducting such a wonderful kids night out. My son really enjoyed a lot and he was taken care so well by everyone. I am also enrolling my kid for summer camp, as I am pretty sure he would have loads of fun and learnings at the Big Kindness tree school.
They have the best library for pre-school kids. Having known Brunda ma’am for more than a year now, she is an amazing women driven by her passion for Montessori education.
We have enrolled my grand daughter to art and yoga sessions at The Big Kindness Tree. She loves to attend the sessions. The instructors and the organisers are accommodating and extremely friendly.
