"From our garden, to our play-yard, to our animals and hands-on materials ... days at Pukka Beginnings are spent in constant wonder and learning."
- Christin Tran, Director
Pukka Beginnings, founded in January of 1999, is committed to providing children with the very best Montessori education. Our emphasis is on the development of the whole child: social, physical, emotional, intellectual, linguistic and cultural. Our staff members believe wholeheartedly in the Montessori approach, and we devote our best efforts to assisting children in the acquisition of skills and knowledge as a preparation for life.
We have two separate classrooms:
(1) Infant Community: for children between 12 and 36 months
(2) Children's House: for children between 3 and 6 years old
Located in Campbell, California (in the heart of Silicon Valley), we are proud to say that our Montessori preschool & kindergarten serves families from all over the world. From Holland, to France, to India, Israel, England, China, Japan, India and more ... we uniquely incorporate the traditions of our families by engaging in cultural sharing of food, dress, traditions and lineage of our families. Our special international day and Mother's day celebrations are as educational as they are inspirational.
Our pre-school and kindergarten students successfully go on to many of our local public and private schools.
