A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO LEARNING

for your child’s all-around growth and success

Preschool | 2.9 - 4+ years | Serving Colindale, Edgware & St Albans UK

attentive care in a
nurturing community

With a ratio of six children to one directress, children thrive and grow in an environment of support and care. At Colindale, our Butterflies class welcomes children from 24 months to four years, and at Edgware, children aged 36 months to four years join the fun in Poppies class.

an environment designed
for exploration

Our Montessori classrooms facilitate children’s development and independence. As they explore, they grow in confidence and enthusiasm to pursue their interests. From appropriately sized tools to large indoor and outdoor play structures, everything sparks their innate curiosity and ability.

fostering and nurturing
a love of learning

We offer a dynamic curriculum, crafted to promote independence, concentration, coordination, and creativity. As children encounter new ideas and receive guidance and support to explore them, their natural curiosity becomes a passion for learning.

an important role to play in multi-age classrooms

In our vibrant learning environment, children learn shared responsibility, compassion, and respect for each other. Older children reinforce lessons they have learned by sharing their knowledge with younger children, exercising care, and taking pride in their role.

socially capable,
independent thinkers

Through classroom and social activities, children learn to take the initiative to help and interact in healthy ways. At lunchtime, children help to lay out the table, take turns to pass the food, and serve each other, socializing with a mixed age range of children and staff.

tailored learning for
personal growth

Each child is met and guided at their own pace, with attention to their learning styles and interests. Through one-to-one and group activities exploring concepts at personalized levels ensures that each child remains focused, engaged, and motivated.

a strong foundation
for the future

Through a broad curriculum that explores academic and social concepts in immersive and inspiring ways, children develop holistically, with emotional and physical abilities as well as maths, science and literacy skills guaranteed to prepare them for Kindergarten and beyond.

furthering learning
with daily enrichments

In addition to their daily investigations, tasks, and play, children’s learning experiences are enriched with myriad opportunities to try new things and build skills. Other languages, ballet, cookery, and woodwork are just a few of the activities that expand and inspire our students.

"It helped with their reading and interaction with their surroundings"

Both my kids attended fountain they are 11 and 51/2 and the foundation it laid for their learning is second to none. The Montessori way is the way to go. It helped with their reading and interaction with their surroundings and their ability to voice their opinions on different things around them. My third and last is definitely headed for fountain once she is old enough

Our daughter has been at Fountain Montessori Colindale for 2 years and we have seen the significant development in her. From learning how to walk, to being very independent, it's clear the great impact that nursery has had. The staff are very friendly and keep us updated with Sia's progress, along with photos sent through the app. I would highly recommend this particular nursery.

Fountain Montessori has got an amazing structure and learning environment for our kid, we've seen great developments and changes since she joined 8 weeks ago.

"The report and consultation helps me understand how Ellie is doing at the nursery"

Thank you all the staff for taking very good care of Ellie. She loves coming to the nursery and she is learning so much everyday. The report and consultation helps me understand how Ellie is doing at the nursery and her social side as I only see her in a home environment. It helps to know how the nursery trains her things so that we can do the same at home.

Our oldest has come out of his shell since joining Fountain Montessori School. It's like a home a way from home, his safe heaven and a comfort zone for him. Our youngest always looked forward to joining his brother and he did in Jan. He settled in fine and his key worker is amazing, the staff all make a good team.
