  ABOUT BRANTFORD MONTESSORI BILINGUAL SCHOOL


Our Lady Queen of Peace Montessori Bilingual School is located at 128 Nelson Street (corner of Clarence Street), Brantford, Ontario, Canada.

Our fully self-contained unit include bright, modern and spacious open concept classroom, convenient washroom facilities, and fully equipped kitchen. We are also connected to fenced outdoor playground.

The school takes pride in a quality early childhood education program, opened to children 2½ to 5 years of age which is referred to as Casa in our program. We believe the early years of education form a strong solid foundation for academic achievement in the future. Academic understanding in preparation for elementary school is provided through Montessori methods and materials. Each child is respected as an individual: therefore, teaching methods, approaches and instructions are tailored to the child's individual learning needs.

The school is licensed with the Ministry of Community and Social Services. We also have subsidized program with the City of Brantford.  Our premises are regularly inspected by the Health Department. Our school is in compliance with the Building Code and the Fire Code.

Our PROGRAM runs for 10 months with extended hours. After school SCHEDULED PROGRAM for kids 6 to 12 years old also available. Summer Daycare will also be available during summer months. Feel free to contact us for more information about enrollment in our programs.

OUR HISTORY

Brantford Montessori Bilingual Center was established in March 1994. Its beginnings were as home based school. In February 1997, the Center moved to a new and larger location, at the Dunsdon Plaza. Enrollment increased and more space was needed in September 1998. In response, an elementary classroom was set up at Grandview Public School. Then to accommodate further growth, BMBC took possession of three classrooms at the Mohawk College, in July 1999. 


Over the years, the profile of BMBC has changed. BMBC has become a private Catholic school that is also opened to all other denominations as long as the parents of the latter accept our philosophy. This explains the name that appears now on our letterhead.

In July 2003, the elementary program was eliminated. The College needed more space for their classes. We were therefore, forced to downsize our school to a capacity of sixteen students. We were able to run our program until the end of June 2006.

In 2006, our school moved from Mohawk College - Brantford Campus to a more convenient location at 128 Nelson Street (corner of Clarence Street), and we are running under the same management.


OUR GOALS

The goals of Our Lady Queen of Peace Montessori Bilingual School are to provide children ages 2½ through age 5 a safe, caring, nurturing and academically stimulating environment.

It is preferable for children to enter the Montessori program between the ages 2½ and 3½ years. In this environment every child can develop a positive self-image, self-confidence and fundamental academic understanding.

Over the years, we have noticed in our students who have completed the 3-Year Casa Program that they precociously read fluently and have acquired a strong and solid foundation in mathematical concepts.
