Northside Montessori School is a small, tight knit community. Our enrolment interviews are a relatively relaxed, with a purpose of getting to know our prospective families better.
We strongly encourage families to book a campus tour prior to applying for an enrolment position at the School. This enables families to explore our community, get a sense of who we are, and if it is the best fit for their child to thrive.
Northside Montessori School uses the Audiri App as their main channel of communication with exisiting families. In addition, we provide valuable information on our website as well as in our weekly Newsletter. We ask families to maintain their contact details up to date with the school, at all times.
