Montessori Buzz – January 21, 2025
Dear MA Families & Friends,
Re-enrolment for 2025-2026
A Message from Tina on Wednesday; re-enrolment opens on Friday
Re-enrolment opens on Friday. Watch for Tina’s tuition letter that will be shared under Notices in the app on Wednesday afternoon. It’ll outline tuition and fees for the coming school year and also share many of the exciting things that the future holds for MA. We will share another Notice via the app on Friday afternoon when re-enrolment opens.
Last call: Elementary Hot Lunch registration
Elementary hot lunch and milk orders for February 3 – June 20 are available online. The deadline to order is next Tuesday, January 28. After the deadline has passed, the orders will be closed. If you need assistance with ordering, please contact the Main Office before the deadline.
- Most items require you to select different options for the meal, so please read each item carefully and choose only one.
- Milk orders must be completely ordered by January 28, as that order is placed in bulk, and is separate from lunch. Place all orders up to June, as there will be absolutely no additions made after the deadline has passed.
IMPORTANT: Please review your complete balance when you place your orders online at https://mahotlunch.campbrainregistration.com/ to ensure that everything is paid in full. Payments can be made online, or you can drop into the Main Office to pay by cash, cheque, credit or Apple Pay. You can also e-transfer to payments@montessori.on.ca (putting your child’s name and the reason in the Notes section).

Photos from the week…
Baking buddies
These best buds baked delicious banana bread on a cold and blustery day last week.
Toddler yoga!
Too cold to go outside, so it’s time for some yoga!
Casa reading … right on topic!
When you grab a book to read to your classmates, and it just so happens to be about your continent study!
Lower El visiting teacher
The Montessori method has no bounds! When you have a Montessori teacher visiting all the way from Brazil and she jumps right in to help a student with his checkerboard question. Montessori truly is a global education system!
