REANZ, in friendship with Helensville Montessori, invites you to join us in visiting three exceptional learning spaces. Heather and her team have created a very special space that reflects both Montessori beginnings and influences from Reggio Emilia. You will visit the three classrooms for children from 2 – 6 years: Nido, Casa and Villa.

Heather’s leadership at Helensville Montessori has supported teachers to deconstruct and reconceptualise the gift that Maria Montessori passed on to the world.

A group of enthusiastic Early Childhood Teachers travelled by bus to Matakana, one hour north of Auckland, on March 27th, to spend a day visiting and sharing with the teachers of  The Crib.  This is a small, ten children, Infant and Toddler centre.
