Welcome to Montessori Playgroup (Montessori Children's Foundation)

Term 2 bookings are now open for Montessori children's foundation playgroup. 👉https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdPwQcpnFxbH6RBiikPUnlmk-oJalX3z2ow8axE9LauL4448A/viewform?usp=header Our Montessori Playgroup is held in a carefully crafted Montessori environment, designed to support both children and their caregivers as they explore and learn using Montessori methods and activities. With the guidance of our Montessori facilitators, children are encouraged to develop independence and self-reliance, while parents have the opportunity to observe and engage in the process. Parents receive practical advice on incorporating Montessori principles at home and gain valuable insights by observing their child's interaction with these principles in the playgroup setting. The program is tailored to the unique needs of this age group, responding to their absorbent minds and strong sense of order. The playgroup sessions are held three times a week at our Scott St location. Parents and caregivers can choose to enrol for the entire term at $80 or attend casually at $10 per session, with options available on Mondays 9:30 am to 11:00 am.
