More Information

When comparing Montessori vs Reggio Emilia, families are choosing between two respected child-centred approaches to early learning. Both value curiosity and independence, but differ in structure, classroom design, and the educator’s role. Understanding these differences can help you choose the right fit for your child.

On Saturday 14th February, Montessori Academy proudly celebrated the Gregory Hills Childcare Grand Opening at 87 Lasso Road, Gregory Hills NSW 2557. The event welcomed local families and community leaders for a vibrant day of connection and celebration, highlighting the centre’s commitment to delivering high-quality Montessori early education and care in the heart of the Gregory Hills community.
