Community
Our School community is vibrant, caring and welcoming.
Founded originally by a small group of enthusiastic and committed parents who wanted a Montessori education for their children, Southern Montessori School continues to thrive thanks to a deeply engaged parent community.
We value strong and close communication with our families, and their active participation as volunteers and at social events.
Many of our families will tell you that they have made lifelong friends as their children journey from the Early Learning Centre through Primary School and into the Middle School.
To help deepen our families’ understanding of Montessori learning, we regularly offer parent workshops, Coffee With a Dash of Montessori, on a range of topics, as well as inviting guest speakers from the wider community to provide information sessions. Open classroom experiences allow parents to observe their child in their normal classroom learning environment. Special assemblies and showcases provide students with the opportunity to present to their families. We welcome our alumni and their families to attend school events. If you would like to receive information about events, please take a moment to update your contact details with us by emailing: admin@southernmontessori.sa.edu.au The Parents and Friends (P&F) is a voluntary group that aims to help build a positive and engaging school community. The P&F fosters relationships between families, organises varied fun events as well as fundraising to further enrich our children’s learning experience.
