Programs include Parent and Toddler playgroups, an Early Learning Program, Kindergarten, Primary School, and a growing Senior School (approved IB School in 2019). 

Using the Montessori approach, we nurture intellectual, emotional, social, spiritual, and physical growth for the development of a whole, healthful being.

There are two campuses, one in Caulfield South and one in Brighton East, soon to be a third campus at St Kilda.     

Each campus has age appropriate outdoor spaces with interesting structures, and classrooms equipped with Montessori materials. These environments are prepared for children and adolescents at each developmental level, and allow them to take responsibility for their own education. As a result, our students develop a life-long passion for learning.

All classes are multi-age, giving each child the opportunity to learn from others and the flexibility to develop their personality at their own pace, both socially and intellectually.
