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

1. Individualised learning – we adapt to the pace of your child
2. Sensory Friendly Environment – Our school is designed to be calm, organized, and aesthetically simple, with natural lighting and minimal distractions.
3. Hands on Multi-Sensory Learning 
4. Freedom with structure – Children choose from structured activities within a prepared environment.
5. Predictable routine
6. Emphasis on Independence.
7. Mixed age classroom
8. 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.
