York Montessori Private School is a co-educational Montessori School, Casa to Senior Preparatory, situated in the heart of a growing community. It was established in 2003. The School offers a program based on well known philosophies and Montessori teaching methodology. We aim to provide a happy, caring, and challenging environment for students throughout their lives. Montessori based academic programs and extra-curricular activities foster an enjoyment of learning and a concrete foundation for tertiary education and life beyond academics.
Students learn in a caring discipline classroom environment with sequenced activities and structured programs through five basic subjects; Practical Life, Sensorial, Mathematics, Language, and Culture. Students progress at their own pace with gentle guidance from their trained Montessori teacher.
About Summer Camp
Our summer camp program is an exciting day camp for students to have a joyous, engaging summer. The summer program focuses more on interactive activities. Students have various field trips and special events. Each week has themed activities such as “Being a Chef” where students baked and decorated their very own cakes. There are also weekly Water Play Days to cool off during the warm summer days.
