Dear Teachers and Parents,

Another Summer break is around the corner. What you are able to achieve in terms of academic progress and achievement lies solely in your hand. The break is not only about Holidays, Travels and Tourism, but also a time of refreshing, sobber reflection and opportunity to pursue a form of Career upliftment. At Chelis Education Consult, we have put together series of Educative Montessori Classroom Activities that can be easily learned and introduced to your school to achieve tremendous results with your pupils’ development even if your school isn’t a Montessori School.

We believe that children are able to learn a great deal and record tremendous amount of success and growth if they are given the right kind of activities at various stages of their development by a sensitive, trained and observant teacher. We invite you to take advantage of this opportunity to attend this four-Day Modular Professional Development Course and see the wonders this will have on your pupils and your very self.

We look forward to welcoming you, your teachers, delegates, friends and all interested in adding value to themselves at our Teacher Training Centre this summer for a memorable time and experience.
