A Day at De La Fontaine
What Makes Us Special
We nurture each child’s natural curiosity and independence through a thoughtful, child-centred approach — all the benefits of a traditional education, with a modern curriculum that prepares your child for every learning environment ahead.
Experienced Faculty
A warm, nurturing environment led by professionally trained Montessori guides who stay with your family year after year.
Innovative Learning
Classrooms built for deeper thinking, where questions are welcomed and children lead their own discoveries.
Parent Partnership
Real opportunities to be part of school life, because the strongest outcomes come from home and school working together.
Love & Care
Home-like rooms and natural play areas that the children help care for, building responsibility and independence every day.
Four Pillars of the Montessori Classroom
Self-help skills across care of self, care of environment, grace and courtesy, and movement — the foundation of independence.
A multi-sensory approach where children learn by processing what they see, hear, touch and compare for themselves.
An extension of the language curriculum, building a sense of history, geography and a genuine appreciation of cultural difference.
Concrete materials that carry a child from practical life and sensorial work into abstract mathematical thinking.
Full Language Immersion
Carefully prepared, age-appropriate environments immerse children in English, Spanish and French, nurturing their remarkable capacity to absorb language in the earliest years.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience here. The teachers are warm, patient, and truly invested in every child’s growth. Our child has become more confident, independent, and excited to learn each day. It’s comforting to know they are in a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment.
This school has been a wonderful place for our family. The curriculum is engaging, the classrooms are inviting, and the staff always goes above and beyond. We’ve seen incredible progress in our child’s social and academic development.

What ages do you enrol?
We welcome children from six weeks through six years old, across infant, toddler and primary Montessori environments.
Does my child need to speak Spanish or French already?
Not at all. Our environments are built for immersion, and children absorb the languages naturally through everyday routines, songs, stories and work with their guides.
When can we start?
Enrolment is ongoing. Most families secure a place ahead of the new school year, and we continue to welcome new students throughout the year as space allows — so the best first step is simply to request information.
How does enrolment work?
Three simple steps: a brief conversation about your goals and how we can support your child, a personalised visit with our enrolment specialist, then your application and enrolment fee.
Which campus should we choose?
Whichever is most convenient — both campuses run the same Montessori programme. Request information and we will help you work out which one suits your family best.
