Montessori For Children
Broadrick Road
March 9th to 13th, 2015
Please note that the school is closed next week for our mid-term break.
We resume sessions on 23rd March 2015.
We wish everyone a pleasant and relaxing holiday.
We had a great Friday to close off the week. The staff and faculty
sent the children off on their mid-term break with some St. Patrick’s
Day fun - We told our version of a folktale ’St. Patrick, the Little Old
Lady and the Leprechaun’, sang some Irish standards and danced. We
trust you will enjoy the photographs. For more photographs, please click
on this link.
After the entertainment, the children returned to their classes to have a
special ‘green’ St. Patrick’s Day snack made from rice crispy.
