Our mission is to offer quality education, based on Montessori pedagogy and bilingual French/English, to pre-school and primary school children: between 3 and 6 years old; as well as to welcome and collaborate with their families for a global follow-up of each child.

The pedagogy of Maria Montessori (1870-1952) aims to enable each child to develop his or her potential to the fullest, in order to become a balanced, responsible adult, capable of adapting and collaborating constructively and harmoniously in a more sustainable society. Each child is monitored individually according to his or her needs, interests and specificities. This approach is based on the values of caring, respect, listening, collaboration, coeducation, excellence, and seeks to develop the child's self-esteem, confidence, independence, and ability to collaborate as a group and create links with others.

The educational team is made up of educators trained in Montessori pedagogy, with diplomas recognized by the Association Montessori (Suisse). The founder, Corine Devanthéry (MSSc) is a Montessori educator for children aged from 3 to 6. Passionate about the idea that education can guide children towards the realization of their best potential and their fulfillment in society, she puts all her attention and empathy at the service of children and their families. First active in the field of communication for international organizations such as the United Nations, then a teacher, she then held the position of Administrative Director of a bilingual Montessori School. She was also a Board member of the Association Montessori (Suisse), which allowed her to acquire all the experience in the field. 

Located in Coppet, Montessori l'Etincelle, between the lake and the mountains, is close to the Château de Coppet, the centre of the town and to the CFF station. The access to nature is also very close. The school has no religious or political affiliations.
