Marshwood Montessori Pre-school recommendation by a parent.
Our two children attended Marshwood for a total of six very happy years, starting with just a couple of mornings each when they were young and building up to several days a week before they each started school. Before our daughter started at Marshwood we didn't know that much about Montessori education, but we were really struck by the lovely calm atmosphere at our initial visit and decided to give it a try, and we are so glad that we did. The staff at Marshwood have a genuine love for the children in their care, and are passionate about encouraging their individual interests (this included our son doing carpentry every day for weeks on end!). They also fostered a real sense of independence and acceptance of others. Our children both thrived there and loved going. They subsequently settled into mainstream school very smoothly, and still have the enthusiasm for learning and curiosity for life that was nurtured in them at Marshwood. We would not hesitate to recommend Marshwood as an excellent start to a lifelong journey of learning - we all miss it!
