Teachers we trained ourselves
Our directresses hold Montessori theory and practical qualifications from accredited training institutions, are first aid and CPR trained and certified, and are members of SACE. Many trained at the College of Modern Montessori on the same campus.
A full Montessori progression
From the infant community at three months right through to thirteen years, in three-year age cycles. Your child does not have to change schools at six, and does not have to adapt to a different philosophy halfway through.
An all-inclusive solution for working parents
Half day and full day options, a hot lunch, an afternoon snack, aftercare until 17:30, extra-murals and holiday programmes in every break between terms.
Genuinely equipped classrooms
Every class is fully equipped with Montessori materials across practical life, sensorial, language, maths and the cultural subjects — geography, botany, zoology, history, science, music and art.
