Montessori Academy of London | London, Ontario

Elementary and Junior High students will have their photos taken Wednesday. Toddler & Casa students will have their photos taken in October.

Back by popular demand! We will be hosting an outdoor family movie night for Casa through to Junior High in our Elementary courtyard on Thursday, October 6. This is the night before the P.D. Day since it may be a later night than usual! Families will need to dress for the weather, bring lawn chairs and blankets. There will be snacks and drinks available for purchase! You will be able to access the school for washrooms.

Capacity is limited, so you must register all those who are planning to attend. We look forward to seeing you under the stars!

Have you seen our new seating, tables and shelves in the Library? These upgrades were made possible by all of our MA-zing families who contributed by donating or attending our fundraising events last year, as well as a grant from the J.P. Bickell Foundation. Thank you!!!

Part of Montessori is following the children… well, last week, a few of the Toddler children saw a big truck across the street from their classroom, so we followed them outside to see it a little closer!!!

How quickly the children adjust and adapt to being back in the classroom! Calm and concentration in Casa was evident on the first day of school. This is Montessori.

The Blue Shirts are back! Hooray! 🙂

Friday was a perfect day for post-lunch playtime at the park.

At school, the children and staff are encouraged to wear orange; classrooms will be commemorating the day with age-appropriate lessons and discussions.

London Bug Day, on September 24, is a free event held at the London Children’s Museum designed to educate the public about insects, and other arthropods, and familiarize them with these important animals. The event will feature cockroach races, a live insect zoo, crafts, face painting, and a monarch release at the end of the day. (Plus, MA is a supporter!) Find more details online: https://www.londonchildrensmuseum.ca/event/london-bug-day.
