Calendar:
Brooklin Mill Montessori School offers Montessori classes from September to June, following the Durham District school year calendar. Summer Camp programs are available during July and August. Children are welcome to enrol throughout the year, depending on space availability.

Class Composition:
Montessori classes operate in mixed age groupings to encourage children to learn from and respect each other. Our class age groupings overlap to best facilitate each child’s individual needs and pace of development. Placement decisions are done in consultation with parents and depend on each child’s academic and social/emotional readiness.

• Junior Casa – age 2+ to 5 years with a teacher/guide to child ratio of 1:8.
  Please note that children are welcome in this program once toilet-trained.
• Senior Casa & JK/SK Enrichment – age 3½ to 6 years with a teacher/guide to child ratio of 1:12.
• Elementary programs for Grades 1, 2, 3 (ages 5 to 9) with a 1:12 ratio.
