-DR. MARIA MONTESSORI
Welcome to Kensington Montessori and Stirling Montessori, two family-owned and operated Montessori early learning centres dedicated to providing exceptional education and care for young children across Perth.
Located in Kensington and Osborne Park, our centres offer high-quality Montessori child care programs for children aged 15 months to 6 years, supporting each child's unique developmental journey in a nurturing and inspiring environment.
By embracing the Montessori approach to education and care, our environment ensures an inclusive, inviting and safe environment for children that fosters creativity, critical thinking and a lifelong love of learning. Our thoughtfully designed learning spaces encourage independence, concentration, collaboration, and a sense of belonging, helping children develop the skills and confidence they need for the future. We are proud to provide environments where young minds can flourish, and we look forward to welcoming your family into our Montessori community.
Practical Life
The Practical Life area of the classroom is an extension of the child’s own home environment. The practical life exercises encourage independence and promote the development of a sense of order. A child’s ability to concentrate develops with repetition of exercises, which is essential for future learning.
Sensorial
Children learn through their senses and the Montessori Sensorial curriculum promotes the development and refinement of the five senses. All materials in a Montessori environment provide learning through touch, taste, smell, sight, hearing or hands-on manipulation.
Language and Literacy
At Kensington Montessori, young children are introduced to language in many forms, including stories, letters, poems, and songs. Our rich environment extends the children’s scope for discussion and constantly introduces new ideas and vocabulary.
Problem solving and Mathematics
At Kensington Montessori children learn the basic concepts of mathematics with concrete materials initially which leads to a better understanding of abstract concepts.
Geography and Culture
The children work with globes, maps, land and water forms, and collections of pictures of life in different cultures and countries of the world gaining a knowledge and understanding of the world around them.
Science & Technology
Students’ appreciation of the nature is enhanced with regular hands on experiments and explorations.
Our Service statement of philosophy
At our service, our guiding philosophy is to nurture the unique qualities of each child while respecting their individual backgrounds, including cultural and family influences. We achieve this through positive interactions with our children, their families, and our team. Our commitment is demonstrated through our Montessori education program, our team and the design of our prepared learning environment. Our pedagogy follows an emergent Montessori approach that prioritises children’s interests, strengths, and cultural identities in the curriculum.
We believe children are capable, curious, and creative learners, drawing inspiration from Maria Montessori's focus on independence, Vygotsky's emphasis on collaborative learning, Piaget's insights on cognitive growth, and Dr. Red Ruby Scarlet's advocacy for cultural responsiveness and social justice.
We aim to provide an environment that promotes a sense of belonging to each child, their family members, our staff, and the wider community.
We aspire to be one large, happy family
We value the individuality of all people involved with our centre and respect and honour their involvement, feedback, and support.
We aim to provide an innovative, safe, and extremely clean environment, so you and your child enjoy walking through our doors and are comfortable allowing your child to explore.
Our classrooms are all individual and extremely organised whilst offering a stimulating and educational environment that awakens your child’s inner curiosity.
Our staff goes to extraordinary lengths to provide the children with love, respect, dignity, and humility.
Your children are offered achievable challenges, hands-on experiences, and a varied curriculum that promotes balance and deeper absorption of information.
Your child will be exposed to diverse experiences like music & movement, art & craft, cooking lessons, computer lessons, and nature study, so they may become aware that the world is diverse and much more significant than they first imagined.
We aim to have as much fun as possible with your children so that we may all laugh together and learn through playing; children need the opportunity to be children.
We will educate children through their senses and embrace the Montessori method and philosophy. Our curriculum is influenced by the Early Years Learning Framework and we recognize that the early years of life are the most important for lifelong learning.
We aim to recognize every window of opportunity as a particular time to offer your child a specific lesson and not rush them, so that the address is lost. This will promote their independence.
We aim to educate our families in our philosophy, guide, support, inspire and motivate parents to a new level of understanding of their child, and make one of the most challenging jobs rewarding.
We value diversity, honour, celebrate differences, and seek to develop knowledge and positive attitudes towards all walks of life. We actively educate our children about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and respect and acknowledge them as the First Nations People of Australia.
We recognise the Rights of the Child and we work with families to achieve the best outcomes for each child.
We are advocates for children and have a strong commitment to child safety and establishing and maintaining a child-safe environment. Children's safety is paramount, and we aim to take all practical steps to protect children from harm, ensuring a healthy and safe environment.
We value diversity and believe each family's culture is important. We work and communicate with families to support the development of each child’s individual cultural identity. We respect the differences in families
We make education a part of your family’s life in a way that allows you and your child to thrive. To us, the child is the most important piece in the puzzle of being human. We enable children to realise their potentials and help guardians fully understand the treasure they are responsible for.
