Our School Programs

Welcome to Barrenjoey Montessori School

Established in 1985, our independent, not-for-profit school offers Playgroup (Birth-3), Preschool (3-6), Lower Primary (6-9) and Upper Primary (9-12). We are a close-knit community dedicated to authentic Montessori education and lifelong learning.

Delivering a Montessori method of learning, we provide an evidence-based, future-proofed style of education, which also fulfils key learning outcomes from the Early Years Learning Framework and the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) Curriculum.

With exceptionally qualified Montessori trained educators leading and supporting in our classrooms, the children and their families experience a truly child-centred, individual style of education and a connected, supportive community.

“Children learn by doing. They don’t learn by sitting in a chair all day in a classroom, they need to be doing it for themselves.” 

Preschool Director

“We’ve witnessed our child’s confidence and independence flourish since starting at Barrenjoey Montessori School”
