“Growing and nurturing a love of lifelong learning in every child”
Our Lifelong Learning Approach is paired with the Montessori teaching method – or as we like to call it - ‘Montessori and more!’. This is achieved by integrating aspects of Montessori teaching into our Lifelong Learning Approach to construct our learning and play programs which suit each individual child.

Each of our educators have access to Montessori training and Lifelong Learning resources. Every day, your child can enjoy a combination of self-directed and hands-on learning, and opportunities to play and work collaboratively with their peers.
Our Montessori themed resources are complimented by ‘loose parts play’ and other early education elements to support individual growth, as well as enhancing literacy, mathematical and scientific concepts for the children.
Guided by passionate, nurturing educators, your child will gain confidence, resilience and courage. As a parent, you can be confident your child will receive a well-balanced early education as they prepare for school.
