We at Chestnut Hill Montessori School follow Maria Montessori’s philosophy on education. We pride ourselves on our friendly atmosphere, high standards and highly qualified staff.
Here, at Chestnut Hill Montessori School, we offer Junior Montessori and Senior Montessori classes.
Our junior montessori class caters for children from age 21⁄2 to 31⁄2 years. We provide the children with many opportunities for socialising, play, arts and crafts, baking, play dough, music, sand and water play and outdoor activities. We follow a learning curriculum and the children are introduced to some of the early Montessori materials.
Our aim of the junior montessori class is to ensure they enter the next ECCE year as happy and confident children.
Senior Montessori Class – The Montessori Philosophy is maintained in our classroom at all times allowing the child developmentally appropriate ways to learn and benefit from a holistic education in a warm, secure and friendly environment. The Montessori method helps to develop and nurture the physical, intellectual, linguistic, emotional and social aspects of a child’s development.
