Testimonials

I could not recommend Monkstown Grove Montessori more highly. I have three children who have been and my youngest is still there. All three children have blossomed in the care of the teachers who get the balance between Teacher and Mum just right. When I see how happy they are I know I picked the right place for their first venture out into the world. I love that it is a dedicated Montessori and the space itself has high ceilings and huge windows making it a bright and airy space for the kids. I really get a sense that the teachers care about each child and the children in return have loved their teachers. My daughter, now 8, still chats about her time there. They learn all sorts of wonderful stuff about space, volcanos and continents and most importantly they learn to be kind and helpful to the smaller kids. A wonderful find.

Monkstown Grove Montessori was highly recommended to me by a friend 2 years ago. Now, my son Cillian has finished two happy years there and is well prepared for “big school”. He loves all his classmates and has learnt so much! I would recommend Monkstown Grove Montessori for many reasons; the grassy garden for outdoor games and free play, the safe parking, a small class but amply sized, PE lessons, fun art projects, the Irish lesson on Fridays, a fine collection of wildlife in the spring, the detailed parent-teacher feedback, but mostly I would recommended it for the teachers who are energetic, experienced, kind and dedicated to the Montessori ethos. I have no hesitation in sending my daughter (aged 2.5) there next September.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for two wonderful years spent in Monkstown Grove Montessori School. Sadhbh and Peter really enjoyed their time with you and we appreciate all your effort and energy spent on them Monkstown Grove Montessori School offered a very relaxed and positive environment.  Great for children, and adults too! We will miss the wonderful Christmas play and bouncy castle for special occasions. There was always a special effort made for every event, and our children enjoyed them thoroughly. We have some pretty good photographs of those wonderful days. So a big thank you to all at Monkstown Grove Montessori School.

Monkstown Grove Montessori School is a happy, friendly, child-centred place. Both of my children went to the school over the course of three years and during that time I have seen them grow, learn and become confident in themselves. One of the things I like best about the school is that it is a relatively small place and the school has a fantastic continuity in its staff, the three main teachers having been with the school almost from the beginning. This makes for almost a ‘family’ type setting, in which the younger children observe and learn from the older ones and where everyone is encouraged to develop at their own pace. The school’s ethos is another contributing factor to its warm and safe atmosphere. It is based on traditional values of kindness, inclusiveness and respect towards those around us. The years my kids spent in Monkstown Grove Montessori School were so happy and carefree. They made their first friendships there and they learned so much. They have very fond memories from the various school trips they went on, the Christmas plays they prepared, the Easter bunny hunts, Halloween dress-up parties, as well as the scientific and nature experiments they undertook. I have no doubt that the time they spent in the school provided a solid basis for their future learning and growth.
