Manotick Montessori Congradulates Graduating Students!

This past Friday marked a very special, and bittersweet day for the students, their parents and teachers at Manotick Montessori.

Several students from both our Casa and Elementary programs graduated on Friday with their fellow students, proud parents and teachers joining them in celebration.

Adorned in their velvet capes, children receiving their diplomas were those returning to elementary classrooms at Manotick Montessori, while others were saying goodbye for good, moving onto new schools to further their education.

Among the students graduating, younger students from the classroom as well as friends graduating, each prepared small speeches about the graduates.

With each having something unique to say, the children all went around the room telling one another how they’ve touched each other’s lives and what they’ll miss. The graduates then gave their speeches about what they loved and will miss about the school and their friends.

Lastly, the teachers and principal, each shared their stories and memories and what they’ll miss about the graduating students.

Although many tears were shed, (mainly by the teachers) it was all smiles as students, parents and teachers congradulated the graduates with clapping and cheers as they were handed their diplomas.


At the end of both ceremonies, there was a piano recital with Miss Bonnie in the library. A few students played for others to watch and enjoy the music.

After the festivities finished indoors, the students were greeted by the

Gingerbread man outside, handing out cookies to all the students...

Another wonderful and memorable day in Manotick for all the students and teachers alike!
