Mission Statement
At Flemington Montessori School, our mission is to nurture the natural curiosity and potential of each child through an authentic Montessori education. We cultivate independent, compassionate, and responsible learners by providing a thoughtfully prepared environment that supports the development of the whole child—intellectually, socially, emotionally, and morally.
Grounded in the Montessori philosophy, we empower children to explore their interests, follow their inner drive to learn, and develop a lifelong love of discovery. Through hands-on materials, multi-age classrooms, and individualized guidance, we prepare our students to thrive as confident, capable, and compassionate citizens in an ever-changing world.
What is Montessori Education?
Montessori is an educational approach developed by Dr. Maria Montessori that focuses on the natural development of children. It is based on the belief that children learn best through hands-on experience, freedom within limits, and a carefully prepared environment. In a Montessori classroom, children choose their work, move at their own pace, and learn through specially designed materials that promote independence, concentration, and a love of learning. The goal of Montessori education is to support the development of the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, and physically—so they grow into confident, capable, and respectful individuals.
How does Flemington Montessori School support child development?

What is the role of parents in the Montessori method?
In the Montessori method, parents play a vital role as partners in their child’s education. Their involvement helps extend the Montessori philosophy from the classroom into the home. Parents support their child’s growth by fostering independence, encouraging curiosity, and respecting the child’s natural development. They create a calm and orderly home environment with opportunities for the child to participate in real-life tasks like cooking, cleaning, and organizing. Montessori parents also observe rather than interrupt, allowing their child time to focus and problem-solve. By working closely with teachers and modeling respect, patience, and responsibility, parents help reinforce the values and principles of Montessori education, creating a consistent and nurturing experience for the child.
What are the benefits of Montessori education?
Montessori education supports the whole child by encouraging independence, curiosity, and a love of learning. Children learn through hands-on materials and are free to choose work that interests them, helping them stay engaged and focused. Mixed-age classrooms allow younger students to learn from older peers, while older children build leadership skills. Teachers guide rather than lecture, allowing each child to progress at their own pace. Montessori classrooms promote responsibility, problem-solving, and respect for others. The environment is calm, purposeful, and encourages real-world skills like caring for oneself and the community. Overall, Montessori helps children become confident, capable, and thoughtful individuals.
