We signed our 18month toddler with Rain Tree Montessori when they had just opened, and we’re extremely pleased with ourselves for the decision! The school has a strong Montessori influence, from the school’s surroundings, to the classroom materials used, and teachers’ interaction with the children. From the moment my child steps into the school gates, he is encouraged to be independent with age appropriate hand-washing stations. It’s a small detail that makes the difference. The teachers are gentle, patient and loving. My child is never rushed into doing anything, instead they observe him and guide him appropriately. We look forward to the school updates and holiday programmes where the teachers engage with the children. In just a short 6 months we can already see our child’s progress. He’s polite, independent and follows through on tasks. We’ll highly recommend the school to our friends and neighbours!
