Saparya
- 23rd to 24th January 2026
- Onsite
Our conference theme Saparya originates from a Sanskrit term which means to serve. To be sensitive to the needs of the others – this is the foundation of a compassionate and harmonious community. The Montessori environment fosters this spirit. While adults attentively serve the child’s potential, the children develop an awareness of the needs of others and serve one another.
Over 800+ parents, educators, schools are scheduled to attend. Join us for exclusive talks from world renowned speakers on Montessori, education and more.

In Montessori education, the outdoor environment is an essential extension of the prepared indoor space. It offers children opportunities for purposeful movement, hands-on exploration, and a deeper connection with the natural world. But what does a well-prepared outdoor environment truly look like? What principles guide its setup? Join us as we explore the key elements to consider—freedom within limits, independence, beauty, and order—that support the child’s development in meaningful and holistic ways.
Ms. Rukmini and Ms. Ruby will be sharing their thoughts and ideas on how we can go about setting up a prepared outdoor environment.
