Cockatoo
Montessori School is located in a beautiful rural setting
of approximately 5 acres on the outskirts of Cockatoo
(Melways
Map 311:C2).
We are a new small-scale establishment (foundation year
2004) set up to provide a quality education programme
for up to 40 children from 3 to 12 years of age.
One
of the things which makes our school different from
others in the area, is our faithful application of the
principles of Montessori education. This holistic and
child-centred philosophy offers children a full preparation
for their lives ahead, with attention to all facets
of their development.
Montessori
felt that the ultimate goal of education was the building
of world peace. At Cockatoo Montessori School you will
notice this theme underpins all that we do. From the
leafy environment, to the peaceful ways in which children
interact with teachers and each other, our Montessori
program is food for the intellect, the body and the
spirit.
