Montessori Aquilae is a bilingual Montessori school in Geneva for children aged 3 to 12. Classes are mixed-age (3–6 years and 6–12 years) and led by two educators (one francophone and one anglophone) plus an assistant or subject teachers as appropriate. Aquilae uses Latin to stay open to all languages, symbolizing balance between protection and autonomy. Marion Neyroud is the director of the school. The school is located near the city center, five minutes from a tram stop, in a bright, light-filled space.
The school emphasizes a strong link with families and views parents as central to their children's education. It organizes a semi-annual parent meeting, a quarterly written progress report, a joint start-of-year meeting, and many pedagogical or family activities. The school keeps its doors open for questions, remarks, or suggestions. Families are encouraged to adhere to Montessori principles and participate actively in school life.
