An authentic Montessori education, prepared with care for your child.

Yes. The third year of the Children’s House is the year in which the foundations laid in the earlier years come together — reading, writing, mathematics, independent work habits, concentration and social confidence. Children who complete the full cycle typically transition into primary school well prepared academically and, just as importantly, self-directed and settled.

Children who have spent years choosing their own work, completing it and caring for their environment usually adapt quickly. We prepare them in the final year for a more structured routine — longer group work, written recording and following a timetable — while protecting the independence they have built.

Families have gone on to schools such as Grenville, Greensprings, Corona and Wellsprings College, among others. Each family chooses the next school that suits them, and we support that decision.

We share observation records and a written report, discuss your child’s readiness in a parent conference, and talk through what different primary schools look for so you can make an informed choice.

We do not set traditional homework for children aged 0–6. Where it is meaningful, we may suggest simple ideas to continue at home — practical life work, reading together, conversation and outdoor exploration.
