“For me it was essential that I could completely trust the people I left my child with. I wanted them to understand him and to care about him. I wanted him to be happy. The relationships the teachers have worked to build with him and with our whole family are very special. I love the Portfolios – seeing how teachers are guiding his learning and development; and being able to contribute to these.”

“I had seen the Montessori kids and teachers everywhere in the community – the library, the supermarket, the parks, just walking together laughing and chatting to each other and the people they meet. It was one of the reasons I chose Montessori for my child. I like the fact that the children are part of the town they live in.”

“I’m interested in the research that goes on in the Centre – which influences the work that teachers are doing with children. The MAPS project was spectacular – we loved being involved. I’m impressed that teachers have such enthusiasm for continued learning – good role models for our children.”

“There is just so much space for children. Each class has a whole house to learn in – and it’s beautiful. I’d love to stay and play.”
