For happy confident learners
Originally known as Henderson Montessori Preschool, Montessori @ the Children’s House has been providing early childhood education and care for over 40 years, with it joining the Kidicorp family in April 2007.
The Children’s House is a fantastically well-resourced Montessori Preschool catering for children aged 2-6 years of age and offer both sessional, and full day care.
We are very fortunate to have two classrooms so that our programme can be tailored to meet the individual needs of the wide range of children. Ruma Iti is our introductory classroom for the 2 year olds. The Ruma Nui classroom is for older aged children from 3-6 years old.
In addition to a wealth of varied indoor activities, our children also enjoy a great outdoor environment – they can play under the shade provided by our lovely old trees in the summer.
Our families benefit from excellent child to teacher ratios, and the mix of long standing and new teachers with their wealth of experiences, knowledge and training behind them in Montessori and early childhood education.

Parent Voices:
"
To all of the wonderful ladies at The Children's House. Thanks you so much for helping us raise our precious son Eddie over the past 3 years. I wish he could stay at Montessori forever, but I know you have given him the best possible grounding for his future." - April 2012
"It's only Ellie's 2nd week at Montessori @ the Children's House and today I overheard her singing to herself "ants on the apple AAA". She had never heard that song before starting at Montessori. Its really exciting as a parent watching my lovely girl growing up so fast, soaking up all the wonderful things the Montessori teachers and evnvironment have to offer" - April 2012
