With support from parents, children are encouraged to hang their coats and bags on their own peg and enter the classroom to begin the day.

9am – 12pm:

The Work Cycle

The children have free access to the extensive range of tactile Montessori equipment.

They will work on self-selected tasks that engage their natural curiosity.  These include:

  • Life skills
  • The world around you

During the work cycle each child has the freedom to move around both inside and outside.  We have a fully functioning, extensively equipped outdoor classroom, as well as a safe and secure playground.

In order to foster independence, everyone is able to access a healthy snack from the snack table by themselves at any time.
