Parent Testimonials
“Masego and Ofentse – two lovely kids who just grew brilliant by the day. That’s what Montessori is all about quality education embraced in a warm, pleasant home atmosphere”. – Beatrice More
“I want to thank God for this school because my child is pleased with her friends and having a mother at school”. – Elsie Mthimunye
“We have found that Hatfield Montessori Preschool provides our child with a supportive, gentle learning environment. He has been happy there since the first day. The Montessori education philosophy entails that children are respected. When visiting the school I have been impressed by the progress children make in their work with the educational toys and equipment. I would highly recommend HMP to any parent”. -Elizabeth Jansen van Vuuren
“My daughter is a happier and more self-confident child since being at Hatfield Montessori. The staff manage to create a peaceful loving and encouraging environment”. – Linda Raubenheimer
‘With its multi-cultural and multi-racial composition, Hatfield Montessori Preschool is proving to be the ideal choice for our daughter, Amanda. She is being brought up in a similar environment. The school programme is a unique innovation in preschool education”. – Ana and Jairo
‘There’s a place where the rights of who we are, are respected. There’s a place where all your needs are recognised and can be met. There’s a place where you are free to be yourself. There’s a place where you are taught to fit into this world. That place is Montessori. I bring my son to this place and leave with peace of mind knowing I can dedicate myself to my day, for my most precious possession is in the hands of angels, and I say it is well with my soul. I know he’ll be ready to face the next step with confidence when he leaves. Thank you, Hatfield Montessori. Thank you, Shan, Stella and the staff”. – Don and Cathy Allkins
“I wanted a place where my child would learn a lot, grow confident, and still have time / space to play in nature. HMP gives my child the chance to have all of that.”
“After a few weeks at her new school the teachers at my daughter’s new school were asking me which school she came from. They say she’s inquisitive, learns concepts quickly, gets along well with others and is ahead in maths. They are really impressed with her.”
“I love the school philosophy. This is the space where they get to interact with other kids. I love that they spend time with kids from different backgrounds and cultures.”
“The play area is very important to me. They can choose to go outside where its like a mini farm. There are animals, trees, play equipment and even a garden where they get to plant vegetables and take care of the plants. This is a place for kids to be kids.”
“I like that there’s no specific class where your child is forced to be. They are grouped together and the young ones can learn from older ones and vice versa. Just because you’re older doesn’t mean you’re wiser. This school allows all the kids to give and take.”
