BestStart Montessori Mona Vale

BestStart Montessori Mona Vale (formerly Montessori Mona Vale) is a small centre located between the Christchurch central city and Riccarton Mall.

What makes us special

Relationships - Our small licence allows us to build meaningful relationships with all our children and whanau. When we know our children well, we can guide their learning in a way that honours their individuality. This allows each child to set the pace of their own learning in a highly personalised programme.

Multicultural - We offer all children the opportunity to be introduced to the Mandarin language and te reo Māori. We also experience great success at teaching English as an additional language.  Our children develop a sense of pride in who they are, with an appreciation and respect of both the diversity within the centre and the wider New Zealand community.

Our programme - Licensed for just 30 children aged between 2-6 years of age, our programme is based on the unique educational philosophy of Dr Maria Montessori, alongside the world-renowned New Zealand Early Childhood Curriculum, Te Whāriki.

Montessori

When our young learners leave us they take with them a love of learning and the ability to transition to school successfully. Montessori learners are known for their ability to concentrate, work independently and with a solution focused attitude to learning and to life.

The carefully maintained “prepared environment” and special Montessori materials allow children the freedom to explore and learn at their own pace.  Programmes are highly individualised, depending on your child’s unique needs and your aspirations for their learning. Our team of educators “follow the child”, as taught by Dr Montessori.

When you enrol at BestStart Montessori Mona Vale you also become a member of the Montessori Association of New Zealand.  You’ll receive quarterly magazines keeping you up to date with what is happening in the world of Montessori.
