Frequently Asked Questions

For our Casa program, we accept children from the ages of 3-6 years. We sometimes accept children who are just under 3 after a quick assessment to determine readiness for the program and if they are fully toilet-trained.

Once a child is three, they would need to be fully toilet-trained. This means they are able to ask when they need to use the washroom, can pull up/down their pants, and are able to wipe on their own.

Children should also be able to focus on a task or activity for at least 5 minutes and follow simple instructions.

Our program is Montessori based, but instead of a morning and afternoon class, we offer a full-day program. This means that your child will be at the Montessori for the whole day. Currently, this is from 8:30 am - 3:30 pm.

Currently, students attend Montessori from 8:30 am - 3:30 pm. The morning will be dedicated to Montessori learning. Then lunch, outdoor play time, rest time, and inside time with more Montessori work time, stem activities, arts and crafts. Yoga, meditation and French will still be included.
