Welcome to Dove International Montessori School

 
Our aim is not merely to make the child understand, and still less to force him to memorise, but so to touch his imagination as to enthuse him to his innermost core.
— Dr. Maria Montessori

Doves International Montessori School is the reference Montessori schools in Kigali, Rwanda and is a IB - MYB Candidate School.

We are committed to a culture that fosters respect and compassion and honors the spirit of childhood, each child's unique personality, and their individual needs.

Our small / human scale allows us to offer not only an individualised approach to each student but also hands-on learning that equips the children for the world of today and tomorrow.
