No other education captures the passion and sheer joy for learning the way a Montessori education does. We believe that the first twelve years of life are the most important for learning. It’s where children absorb, develop and explore and it’s where attitudes and patterns of learning are formed that last a lifetime.
Cameragal Montessori is a pre-school, kindergarten and primary school, accredited under NSW Education Standards Authority and the Early Childhood Education and Care Framework.
We adhere to the ideals of Dr Maria Montessori, with thoughtful updates that reflect the needs of modern children, and the requirements of the Australian and New South Wales Governments.
The essential purpose of a Montessori education is to offer each child an environment where they feel empowered to develop the skills and habits they need for a lifetime of learning and happiness.
In The Playroom (0-3 Toddler Playgroup), Help your little one positively explore their movement, speech, focus, independence and confidence so they develop a love of learning and grow to their full potential.
Ensure your child’s first experiences with education build their confidence, expand their sense of self and form the building blocks for a rich and rewarding life.
Support your child to become more aware of the world around them, and develop the skills, beliefs and personality traits that will define the adult they become.
Will Cameragal Montessori prepare my child for mainstream high school?
Yes, most definitely. In fact, our students graduate to mainstream high school with less ‘cultural shock’ than most other students, giving them a significant advantage. Not only are they equipped academically (often at very high standards), they’ve had years developing skills, and forming positive habits:
And above all, they have developed a lifelong love of learning that fills them with the confidence to achieve anything they want.
Is Cameragal Montessori a real school?
Yes, Cameragal Montessori is a pre-school, kindergarten and primary school, accredited under NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) and the Department of Education’s Early Childhood Education Directorate (ECED) . We were established in 1976 and hundreds of students have experienced the Cameragal Montessori difference.
Is Montessori an experimental approach?
No – the Montessori approach is founded on intense scientific observation of thousands of children over 100 years, perfected in over 22,000 schools worldwide, and thoughtfully updated to reflect the needs of Australian children and NSW education standards.
Does Cameragal Montessori follow the NSW State Government academic program?
Yes, we teach the exact same curriculum taught in state public and private schools, however we individualise the content for your child based on their academic level and learning styles.
