We acknowledge the Whadjuk Noongar People as the Traditional Custodians of the Lands and waterways where today the Perth Montessori community lives, works and learns.
Our vision for reconciliation is grounded in a commitment to acknowledging past and ongoing injustices, promoting equality and equality and demonstrating respect for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities.
We commit to learning about and respectfully teaching our shared histories. We embed First Nations voices in the creation and delivery of our education programs and learning environments.
We nurture a united, inclusive community through practicing respect, grace and courtesy. As a Montessori community, our goal is that each individual, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, families, staff and community experience a sense of belonging and can make a positive contribution to our interdependent world. ‘Establishing lasting peace is the work of education.’ Dr Montessori.
