Welcome to Morning Star Montessori
At Morning Star Montessori, we strive to give your child a well-balanced education at all levels of development, for each child to gain the ability to solve challenges, to use freedom wisely, to respect himself/herself and others, and to take joy in learning and living.
We see each child as an individual and take our responsibility to help your child in building the foundations for a lifetime of creative learning very seriously.
The activities and environment provided by Morning Star Montessori stimulate and help develop a love of learning, an abiding curiosity in one's surroundings and a desire to discover and do things for oneself.

Montessori in Action
At the beginning of each term, and every Monday morning, our Preschool children take part in a beautiful little Morning Star tradition — carefully picking fresh flowers from the garden to brighten their classrooms 🌼
What may seem like a simple gesture carries so much meaning.
Through moments like these, children practise independence, develop a sense of responsibility, learn to care for their surroundings and discover the joy of contributing to a beautiful, welcoming environment.
Because in Montessori education, learning isn’t only found in books or lessons. Sometimes, it’s found in the smallest, most thoughtful everyday moments! 🤓

Tomorrow, the classrooms come alive again as we welcome our Morning Star children back for the start of a new term 💙
We hope everyone has had a wonderful break, with plenty of time to rest, play and recharge. Our teachers and staff are looking forward to seeing all those familiar bright and smiling faces back at school tomorrow.
Here’s to a beautiful Term 4 filled with curiosity, discovery, growth and plenty of moments worth celebrating 🌱
See you tomorrow, Morning Star! ✨

Two of our Senior Primary children were exploring our beautiful garden when they discovered something fascinating — water-repellent leaves!
The water droplets were sitting on the surface of the leaves rather than soaking in, creating a wonderful example of how some plants naturally keep water on their leaves. A simple garden walk turned into a little science investigation! 🌱🔍
We love seeing our children notice, question and explore the natural world around them.

Our Preschool children had a wonderful hands-on experience exploring the earthworms from our very own earthwormery!
Some children happily held the worms, while others preferred using sticks to explore from a little distance. Each child discovered, observed and learned in their own way. 💚
A simple experience filled with curiosity, courage, respect for living things and a love for nature! 🌍✨
