North Eastern Montessori School

When schools say that they aren't a school more like a family is how I feel about this school. Although I do not attend it anymore I still have connections and this school really gave me the confidence to go into high school.
❤❤❤

It is the best school I have experienced. Especially when I feel each of my children' s needs get met. The teachers are really responsible. All my three boys love the school, they feel welcomed, safe, love and free in this school.

Being a Parent at PVIMS for 14 years, with 2 children attending has been a wonderful experience. As with all schools(my parents/uncles & grandparents were all in the education system), change is inevitable, there are ups and downs with staff turnover, external and internal factors.
At the foundation of this school is the Montessori Philosophy & Practices which are a gift for any child. In conjunction with teachers, staff & willing community, the benefits & outcomes are outstanding. The new Music Director is loved by the children, and is a great asset. Community spirit is an important facet of the school, an sets it apart. The financial and organisational revamp , along with other changes has put the school back in a great position to deliver premier education.

Simply in one word - Outstanding!! We have our 2 kids studying here for the last 1 year and we couldn’t be more happier. 100% Transparency with parents. It’s amazing how they respect the individuality of the child and treat them as equal. My elder one is in grade 2, in Sandra’s class, doing so well academically and also developed a love for her environment. We feel so blessed for her to learn here. She has become more calm, empathetic and has learnt to work in groups. My little one , in Toddler community with Rachel, cuts her own fruits everyday and is so independent in many other ways. She’s always clean when we pick her up. So very well mannered. She’s moving to Cycle 1 this year - and we had a one hour session with her teacher. They take so much care in understanding the child, their habits and their needs. Last year was such a struggle for our family being in lock down, and still the children thrived in the way learning was administered remotely. Everything is well planned. Every step of the way is well guided. And there’s always someone to answer all your questions when you call the reception. And there’s no words to thank our amazing Principal - Janis!! She’s there every morning to greet all the families and children. She has been extremely supportive to us in many ways. The best part is -that she’s always there to hear us out !! The school has an amazing music program and provides an opportunity for children to learn instruments ( not missing out on lunch ) , and has a remarkable creative tech lab apart from the usual arts and additional language. They have chess clubs, Lego clubs and a choir for children to be involved in! Just walking down the school, makes me so calm! True blessing !

We were sending out little one for three years, I am sure this is the one of the best school. All teachers, parents community , Principal and school mgt providing great environment for little angels. Highly recommended for early learning and primary education !!!

It has been hard being at the school since I was 1 (I'm in grade 6 now), mainly because I've seen everyone come and go. There have been a load of people leaving, but it's much better now. I've enjoyed my education soooo much and everyone should have an opportunity to come to this school

My daughter has learnt so much here... and she's only 3!
Looking forward to many more years with this school :)

Lovely school setup. An excellent individual learning experience for each child.

We love north eastern Montessori school. The best ever.

An absolutely amazing place to send your children.

An excellent school, where learning is a joy!

Amazing school

The class and teachers in the class were excellent. Unfortunately there have been many parents unhappy with the principal, and with the board which supports the principal. Associated with this, about half the students have left the school in the past 12 months. Despite all this though I was very happy with my child’s experience and learning at the school.

My children attended PVIMS from playgroup through to Year Six, and over our 12 year journey I volunteered in a wide range of roles, working closely with various teachers, principals and other parents. While the journey was sometimes turbulent, the touchstone was the fact my children were always learning, always wanted to go to school, and treated with courtesy and the sort of respect you rarely see in the mainstream. They emerged as independent, motivated, enthusiastic learners, which is exactly what I was looking for when I chose Montessori. The commitment by teachers is outstanding, very much attuned and responsive to the individual developmental paths my children were travelling. While communication with parents was a weakness throughout much of our time at the school, the moves towards professionalisation were notable, and very important since many of the school's administrative issues arise from parents who are ignorant or dismissive of Montessori practices. For those who are committed to and understand Montessori methods, PVIMS delivered.
