"Montessori is the best method of schooling I have found for children to joyfully and affectively learn independence, responsibilitiy, self-discipline, leadership, initiative, strong academics, and a lifetime love of learning."

Montessori Education Information
It is our belief that Montessori Education is beneficial for almost all children. It is our goal at the outset to provide honest and accurate information in order to help you, the parent, choose the education that is best suited to your child and family.
To answer further questions regarding Montessori Education please contact us for more information. We can be reached at 604-892-1180 or send an e-mail to info@smsed.ca.
Our preschool will offer your children a full or half day education program and before and after care that allows for a 7:00AM to 6:00PM day of care. We offer 40 full time and part time preschool to kindergarten spaces. New this year - we have expanded our school to offer elementary grades 1-3.
Our teachers will all have an AMI Montessori diploma (AMI – Administration Montessori Internationale) recognized around the world and endorsed by the Montessori family. Our preschool teachers will also have Early Childhood Education (ECE) certificate. Our assistants will have their ECE certificate or will be in training for this license.
Children aged 2.5 to 5.5 years possess the incredible and unique ability to absorb all aspects of the environment without effort or fatigue. In order to maximize this ability a rich physical environment, containing key developmental materials, is provided for the child to freely undertake the task of self construction.
Montessori Elementary is a program that grows out of respect for the mind of a rapidly developing child. No longer content to have physical independence (achieved in the 3-6 age class), the child now strives for intellectual independence. This is a time of insatiable curiosity and excitement for learning.
The Montessori curriculum is very broad based and covers traditional and unique subjects including: Language, Mathematics, Cultural studies, Sciences, Music, Sensorial Materials, Exercises of Life Skills and Development of social behaviour and physical activity.
Your Child will discover the joy of learning and prepare himself/herself for their future academic and social life.
