Welcome to Our Montessori Community
At Donvale Montessori we view each day as a new opportunity for wonder, inspiration and joy.
Our Philosophy
CREATE A SAFE & SECURE ENVIRONMENT
Children’s innate love of learning is cultivated in a safe, secure environment. Educators are sensitive to each child’s needs. A strong relationship is built on mutual respect, trust and cooperation between educators, children and their families.
GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
Children have the freedom to move around and explore the materials in the classroom which are carefully designed and suitable for their growth. This prepared environment also provides opportunities for them to work in their own way, at their own pace and to make new discoveries.
encourage spontaneous activities
Children’s spontaneous activities are encouraged provided they are purposeful and not disruptive to others. They learn to be responsible for their own learning and be masters of themselves.
stimulated by nature
Children have the opportunity to explore and be stimulated by nature, thereby becoming aware of the interconnectedness between living and non-living things.
exposed to multiple cultures
Children are exposed to Aboriginal and other cultures, religions and races.
