Centre philosophy
Centre philosophy
Montessori education is a personalised approach developed by Dr Maria Montessori, proven successful for over a century. It tailors learning to each child's style, stage, and interests, fostering academic and well-being foundations through hands-on experiences and real-world problem-solving. Montessori educators observe children's interests and guide them toward relevant materials for purposeful and engaging learning. This method acknowledges diverse learning paces and preferences, promoting respect, independence, and freedom for children to direct their own learning, leading to high motivation and a love for learning.
About the curriculum
About the curriculum
The curriculum at Montessori Academy follows a blended approach, drawing on both Montessori principles and the Early Years Learning Framework. The curriculum follows five key learning areas:
- Practical Life: exercises and activities that children observe in daily life to develop their independence, concentration and fine motor skills.
- Sensorial: activities that help to refine the senses and lay the foundation of early mathematics, language and geometry.
- Mathematics: hands on experiences that teach both abstract and concrete mathematical concepts.
- Language: exercises that help the children to develop their vocabulary and understanding of language.
- Cultural Studies: children learn about culture and community through subjects such as Geography, Botany, Zoology, Science, History, Music and Art.
The educators use Montessori materials to teach the curriculum and tailor the learning to each individual child.

Montessori early learning centres differ from conventional preschools and childcare facilities. They create an ideal learning environment, offer customized educational materials, and provide guidance to support holistic child development. Montessori education is active, adaptable to each child's pace, encourages self-correction, and aligns with individual interests. Its overarching objective is to equip children with the knowledge and abilities needed for lifelong learning, fostering confidence, independence, and a thirst for knowledge.

My daughter was at Barangaroo Montessori from the age of 14 months until just shy of 4.5 years old. Just this year she was accepted into a school much closer to home. Within the first week at her new school, her teacher approached me and commented on how exceptional her vocabulary and speech was & asked what childcare centre she had attended. I was very proud and could not speak more highly of Barangaroo Montessori. The level of attention, education and support provided is second to none. The quality of care is fantastic. The gentle structure and guided curriculum instilled a love of learning and education from such an early, pivotal age/stage for my child all whilst still allowing her to be a child. It is obvious in her love of reading, thirst for knowledge and curiosity of the world around her. The prepared environment that Barangaroo Montessori offers is excellent. My daughter had reached many milestones whilst at the centre; a precious moment I missed in person but was captured so beautifully by her educator was her first steps. The excitement and encouragement in Miss Liv's voice made my heart swell and the proud smile on my daughter's face was priceless. That video is still one of my favourites and my daughter is almost 5 years old. That level of love, care, encouragement, excitement and patience extends well beyond just my child's first steps and the classroom. It isn't just with one educator, it is evident amongst all the wonderful staff at Barangaroo. You can see and feel how passionate they all are and have a genuine love of not just the children but also for what they do. They are more than just educators; they are carers, second Mothers, friends and your child’s biggest cheerleader aside from yourself! Although we are sad that our daughter will not be sharing the Preschool Graduation milestone with her friends and wonderful carers at Barangaroo Montessori this year, we are forever grateful to them for helping her become a well-rounded philomath who is so very kind, confident, independent, and an ever-evolving social butterfly!

Had our eldest born enrolled from September 2019 until January 2022. We can’t speak highly enough of the centre and the staff. Christina and her team were so accommodating and caring of our little son and our needs as parents. The staff are warm, experienced and brilliant with the kids! The choice to remove the kids was due to moving homes and a result of the WFH orders during the pandemic. Cannot recommend Montessori Barangaroo highly enough. Many of the staff still stay in touch with us asking after our kids! 5 star location and staff! Read more
