Welcome to Montessori International College!

Our website enables a portal through which you can discover, albeit virtually, the learning community which is, Montessori International College.

Montessori International College is a progressive school community providing primary and secondary education and follows the recommendations as articulated in the writings of Dr Maria Montessori. As you stroll through our campus you immediately experience the inimitable energy that radiates from the child and adolescent. Our campus is not grandiose, and some visitors are taken aback by both its simplicity and beauty. Our classroom environments are not filled with the busyness, distractions and noises of the 21st century but are environs that serve and honour the needs of the child and adolescent.

The teachers at Montessori International College offer their students wisdom, diversity of experience, compassion and respect. They form part of a dynamic collaborative that share a deep connection to Montessori's writings and each are driven by the work of the children and adolescents in their care.  Please visit our Meet the Staff section of this site to gain further insight into the staff at Montessori International College.

You will find at Montessori International College an engaged and active community of parents, teachers and staff.  Our college values the role of parenting and offers parent education to all families as a way of supporting them in this role. We do this, because in essence, Montessori education is about raising children from birth through childhood and adolescence and into adulthood.

It is with delight that we welcome you to Montessori International College.

If you would like to visit MIC please contact the MIC Administration, to reserve a place on the next school tour.

Regards,

Chiray Fitton

Principal

Susan, Romola, Oliver and Jennifer staffing the stall at Kawana Shoppingworld.
Sweets stall raises $800 for M4M
Sales of Russian Fudge, Coconut Ice and Rocky Road had the "
Million for Montessori" (M4M) campaign underway. Thanks to the energy of more than 30 bakers, sellers and the leadership of parent Susan Archer, $800 was added to the Montessori International College building fund – and introduced the goals of the school to the Kawana community.
The stall also gave students an opportunity to hone their numeracy skills through calculating costs of sweets bags and change for customers, in addition to grace and courtesy as a very eager public face of the school.
Thank you  to Kawana Shoppingworld for generously allowing our stall to operate in the centre on Friday 23 and Saturday 24 March.
