Our Montessori Preschool Program is set in a dynamic learning environment that empowers children with independence, freedom of choice, and real-life skills. The program focuses on extending children’s knowledge of the five curriculum areas and preparing them for school.
The preschool classroom is a prepared environment where learning materials are grouped by curriculum area. Learning materials increase in difficulty to build children’s knowledge as their confidence and competence increase.
Children are free to work independently or in small groups under the guidance of trained Montessori Educators. Based on daily observations of each child’s skills, Educators introduce new materials and activities to extend learning.
Throughout the day, our preschoolers participate in a structured daily routine that provides the ideal balance of learning time, physical activity, creative play, and group activities to support children’s complete development.
Our preschool classroom accommodates a maximum of 18 children aged three to six years. Nutritious meals, nappies, wipes, and bedsheets are included in the daily fee of $123 before the Child Care Subsidy. Families receive daily updates about their children’s learning, eating, and sleeping patterns through our parent communication app.
Between the ages of three and six, your child’s brain is capable of rapidly absorbing information through experience. Our program provides the ideal environment for children to maximise this crucial learning period for reading, writing, mathematics, grace and courtesy, order, systems, and relationships.
The preschool classroom is a prepared environment where learning materials are grouped by curriculum area. Learning materials increase in difficulty to build children’s knowledge as their confidence and competence increase. The environment empowers children with independence, choice, and real-life skills.
The Montessori Preschool Curriculum covers six key learning areas: Practical Life, Sensorial, Mathematics, Language, Culture, and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). Learning activities promote independence, confidence, social skills, problem-solving, school readiness, and foundational knowledge and skills.
Montessori education provides children with the best possible start to life. The key benefits include:
At Educate Me Montessori, we provide everything your child needs for the daily fee of $115 for ages three to six.

"The goal of early childhood education should be to activate the child's own natural desire to learn."

The Montessori Infant Program offers a hands-on curriculum that emerges from children’s developmental needs and interests from birth to age two. Learning objectives for our infant community include developing language skills, concentration, movement skills, problem-solving, social skills, coordination, and independence.
The Montessori Toddler Program provides children aged 2-3 years with hands-on learning experiences that lay the foundations for the five areas of the Montessori Curriculum. The Toddler Program focuses on developing children’s independence, social skills, emotional regulation, confidence, and real-life skills.
The Montessori Preschool Program prepares children aged 3-6 with the knowledge and skills to succeed at school and in life. Children further their understanding of the Montessori Curriculum areas while developing outstanding academic skills, task persistence, concentration, and creativity.

Practical Life activities such as threading, spooning and pouring, help children to develop independence and self-help skills that prepare them for life. These activities also develop children’s fine motor skills, concentration, coordination, and confidence.
Sensorial materials such as the colour box and smelling jars provide children with opportunities to refine their senses of sight, touch, sound, smell, and taste. Developing sensorial skills allows children to better understand, clarify, and classify their experiences.
The Mathematics Curriculum introduces children to abstract mathematics concepts through hands-on experiences. Materials such as the number rods and spindle box prepare children for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and fractions.
The Language Curriculum encourages the development of early literacy skills. Children learn phonics, letters identification and formation, writing, reading, and oral language skills by working with Montessori materials such as the moveable alphabet and sound boxes.
The Art and Culture area incorporates the study of Geography, Music, History, Botany, Science, Diversity, Sustainability and the Environment, as well as so much more. Through the study of Art and Culture children develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of their world.
The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) is the National Curriculum for Early Childhood Education. It is designed to support children’s sense of being, belonging, and becoming. The EYLF focuses on play-based learning strategies that are linked to key learning outcomes.
