Reggio Emilia
The Reggio Emilia philosophy views every child as curious, capable, and full of potential. Founded by educator Loris Malaguzzi in the Italian town of Reggio Emilia, this approach celebrates children as active participants in their own learning.
​
Reggio educators believe children communicate through “a hundred languages” — art, music, movement, storytelling, and exploration. Classrooms become creative studios where ideas take shape through collaboration and discovery.
​
Teachers guide rather than instruct, working alongside children to spark curiosity and deepen understanding. Learning unfolds through emergent curriculum, long-term projects, creative expression, and collaboration — nurturing empathy, creativity, and critical thinking.
​
The Reggio Emilia approach invites children to explore the world with wonder and confidence, growing into thoughtful, expressive, and joyful learners.
