Educating the whole child
Our aim is not merely to make the child understand, and still less to force him to memorize, but so to touch his imagination as to enthuse him to his innermost core.

We offer an authentic Montessori education
The Farmhouse Montessori School’s philosophy follows the educational approach founded by Maria Montessori.
Every child is different. Each with their individual personalities, traits and attitudes. At Farmhouse Montessori, we take all of these into consideration when designing our education plans to match each child’s individual needs. We not only focus on the academic side of school life, but also understand that the emotional, social and physical aspects are equally as important.
Together, these four attributes form ‘the whole child’, and as a Montessori school this is something we understand. Each attribute is unique and independent but as these aspects overlap, we find ways in which to link the curriculum outcomes. From public speaking to confidence building, conflict resolution to emotional stability, and physical wellness to a positive attitude.
As each child embarks on their educational journey, Farmhouse Montessori understands, observes and educates to make sure every child blossoms to their full potential.
We aim to teach
Respect.
Respect – for oneself, for others, for the environment and all walks of life.
A lifelong love of learning.
A lifelong love of learning – curiosity and wonder, an enquiring mind, problem-solving, patience and tenacity.
Independence.
Independence – self-possession, responsibility and adaptability to the ever-changing world.
