Mission and Goals

Home Mission and Goals

Our Mission

Riverlands Montessori School’s purpose is to provide an educational program in which foundations are laid for positive attitudes towards learning and life. It is a non-denominational school based on a commitment to social understanding and care of the environment. The school aims to educate the whole child within a Montessori environment, to develop in children the ability to accept responsibility for their own learning through choice, and to:

  • encourage children to proceed at their own pace
  • socialise children to prepare them for life
  • nurture the intellect of the child in analytical, creative and emotional terms
  • assist children to fulfil their potential and contribute positively towards society.

Our Goals

  • To foster a positive school atmosphere, characterised by enthusiasm and a happy work environment.
  • To develop a balanced, comprehensive and innovative curriculum that provides for individual learning, promotes educational excellence and is responsive to students’ needs.
  • To encourage a positive relationship between students, staff and the home so that children feel confident and excited about coming to school.
  • To nurture a strong community spirit and involvement in the life of the school.
  • To work towards improving the school’s facilities and environment to enhance the image of the school.
  • To increase the resources available to implement the curriculum.
  • To maintain a high profile in the local community to encourage future enrolments.
  • To build a collaborative team of staff who promote the ethos and philosophy of the school.
  • To encourage and support staff to update their qualifications and to further their educational knowledge and skills.
  • To provide effective communication within the school and seek feedback on the school’s performance from its community.
  • To promote public confidence in Montessori education.
