Programs

A Three-Year Cycle

Our program is specifically designed to encompass a three-year cycle, which coincides with the crucial development of children aged 3-6. This learning period has been recognized by educational experts as a critical stage in a child's educational development. Children begin our program at age three, progressing through specific milestones within the Montessori environment in preparation for their third and final year as kindergarten students.

Gatehouse Montessori would like to acknowledge the financial assistance of the Province of British Columbia through their Direct Access Program Grants in support of our school.
