All classes are being held weekends and evenings plus one week in the summer. This is a complete Montessori Diploma program including 210 hours of classroom instruction and a 400 hour practicum placement. The program is operated in conjunction with Montessori Partnership in Scotland, and is certified by The Montessori Accreditation Council.

First Montessori program in Victoria

 

West-Mont School has been delivering a Montessori program to the Western Communities for over fifty years. The past fifteen years has been a time of exciting growth for us. This has included the move to our stunning 8-acre property next to Witty's Lagoon Park in Metchosin, the expansion of our elementary program up to grade 8 and most recently, the construction of our new Multipurpose Building with gymnasium and change rooms, a stage, and additional classroom facilities.

 

Our Ideal Facilities

Our facilities are ideal for the garden components of our Montessori and outdoor education programs, fitting well with the farming heritage of our local Metchosin community. Our gorgeous location also provides many opportunities for our students of all ages, from preschool to grade 8, to study science at our pond, and in the forest, ocean, and watershed of Witty's Lagoon Park.

 

We invite you to browse our site to learn more about West-Mont School. However the best way to experience our program is to visit in person and see our school in action. We host an Open House each Thursday morning, and welcome you to join us for a tour.
