Established July 2013, we are a privately owned Montessori preschool located conveniently on the corner of Great North Road and Larch Street in Avondale.
We have a strong foundation in Dr Maria Montessori's philosophy and, through our 'prepared environment', we provide unique learning programmes that incorporate all aspects of traditional Montessori methods while meeting the strands and learning outcomes of Te Whāriki the New Zealand Early Learning Curriculum.
The original 1920's house has been beautifully converted into a new spacious preschool which retains the warm homely feeling and character of the era yet has all the benefits of a modern building.
Our large outdoor area provides a great environment for your child's outdoor activities. Casa Montessori is a safe, calm and respectful environment and a wonderful place for your child to be. We cater for children between 2 and 6 years.
Our Mission
It is our mission to provide a high quality Montessori environment which enables children to begin their learning journey through life. Our undertaking is to cultivate a life-long love of learning in our children which inspires them to realise their full potential. Our children will grow to be confident and knowledgeable learners which are healthy in mind, body, and spirit so that they go on to make a valued contribution to the community and wider world.
What we do
We provide a well prepared learning environment which is based on Montessori education methods integrated with Te Whāriki.
The preschool is an aesthetic, calm, warm and nature friendly home-like indoor and outdoor environment with well-organised learning materials in a scientifically designed sequence that is attractive for children to work within.
Children have the opportunity to work and learn alongside others with mixed ages, abilities, genders, cultures and learn to learn to be receptive, cooperative, warm and graceful in a positive atmosphere. We incorporate a bi-cultural approach within the preschool environment by embracing home cultures and customs that honour the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi.
