As each school reflects their own values and school culture, it is important that you have a visit to our school to ensure the school’s environment is a good fit for your child. We ask all new parents to visit our school and tour our facilities before they make a commitment to our programs.

The formal application process includes a student visit with the principal to screen your child. This allows the school a chance to evaluate your child’s abilities and identify areas for development for placement within the school.

Applications will be accepted throughout the year. Once you have viewed the school and have decided to apply for a place, please complete an application form. We accept children from many different cultures and countries. Most children speak either English or their mother tongues. There is no prerequisite for their language. It is not a requirement for the children to speak English upon admission.  addition this visit gives the child and parent an opportunity to be in the school environment. There is time during the student visit to answer individual questions about the Montessori curriculum and school procedures at The Children’s House – Montessori Nursery School.

Our Admission Procedures Begin With :

• A Tour our facilities
• Submit Registration form & fees to the school.
• Student visits the classroom without parents for one hour as part of the evaluation process
• Parent Interview

Interviews will be scheduled as soon as possible after requests are received.

When an opening occurs, children accepted will be admitted according to the chronological order of applications. The actual timing of admission to a class is an educational decision, it may be necessary for the school to deviate at times from the policy of chronological admission.
