Celebrating Over 50 years of Excellence in Montessori education

Using the Montessori philosophy, we’re dedicated to helping children learn in a nurturing, community driven educational environment that encourages the growth of the whole child. Our mixed age classrooms are designed to suit your child's age, size, comfort and intellectual needs. Freedom of movement and choice enable each child to make independent choices, watching and learning from others, while our carefully trained Montessori teachers guide each class with appropriate lessons. Children are encouraged to explore their interests at their own pace, using specially designed materials that promote hands-on learning and self-discovery. This approach allows children to develop critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a love for learning that will benefit them throughout their lives.
