Dear Montessori families,

We are thrilled to offer some wonderful after school elective opportunities for our Primary students at the West Ferry Campus.

Electives vary in class size depending on theme and student/teacher ratio. Please note, a minimum of 5 students must be registered to run an elective, and in order to participate in these electives, your child must attend school at the West Ferry campus.

We look forward to seeing their smiling faces enjoying our fall offerings!

Sincerely,

Principal Sarah Collins"
