Neurodivergence and Disability Learning
Montessori has been used with children of all neurotypes and with a variety of abilities. In fact the first Montessori classrooms were designed as Maria Montessori worked with disabled children.
We have many years lived experience of neurodivergence and a welcoming community for your whānau to join.
Montessori has many benefits for neurodivergent and disabled children
- Individualised learning – we adapt to the pace of your child
- Sensory Friendly Environment – Our school is designed to be calm, organized, and aesthetically simple, with natural lighting and minimal distractions.
- Hands on Multi-Sensory Learning
- Freedom with structure – Children choose from structured activities within a prepared environment.
- Predictable routine
- Emphasis on Independence.
- Mixed age classroom
- Focus on the whole child.
When enrolling please give us as much information as possible so that we can understand the needs of your child and develop a learning space that helps them flourish.
We encourage you to come for a visit and see if you think Montessori could work for your family.
Children with ORS funding are welcome. As a private school we do not have access to some services that public schools have for example, RTLB service or a special needs grant. We fundraise for extra funding from community sources.
