Welcome to Raising Happy Kids (Montessori Parenting Playgroup)

Our Montessori Parenting Playgroup meets in a purpose-built environment to accommodate children and, their caregivers as they explore their world using the Montessori methods. In the prepared classroom, Montessori teachers guide children toward independence and self-reliance while offering parents the opportunity to observe and participate. Caregivers are invited into the Raising Happy Kids Parenting Circle in an adjoining room. The Circle is a weekly group session for parents and caregivers with a common goal – to raise happy children. It is steered by a culmination of three robust parenting frameworks – the Montessori pedagogy, the Abecedarian approach and, Circle of Security. Over ten consecutive weeks these carefully organised sessions will guide discussion, provoke reflection and increase confidence at home. The Raising Happy Kids program runs every Tuesday and Thursday morning (9:30 – 11:30) and is usually run in alignment with the school term. Attendance for the duration of the program is recommended. * Enrolment is $100 per term (FREE for First Nations families) and is to be paid week 1 for each term (Casual spots available at $10 per week). * Playgroup attendees can enrol online at: https://raisinghappykids.com.au/enrollment/
