Back to School!

First, I would like to start this blog by saying WELCOME and WELCOME BACK! September was a very busy month with new and old faces returning to school.   The children are now settling into their classrooms and working on fun and exciting activities.  In keeping with the Thanksgiving theme, Miss Julie’s class chose to have a Thanksgiving lunch.  All the children participated in bringing in ingredients and snacks and together they created a delicious Thanksgiving meal –not a trace of any leftovers. 

As you can see from the photos below, everyone enjoyed vegetable soup, apple crisp and apple cider.  The children received a hands-on lesson on what giving thanks is really about.

Thanksgiving at Manotick Montessori Made Special by Students

This past Friday, we were lucky to have the children and Miss Bonnie put on a delightfully entertaining play.  It really was a tremendous display of the children’s early work with Miss Bonnie.  

Our first years did a wonderful job considering it was their first time putting on a play in front of family! 

Throughout the year Miss Bonnie performs two plays with the children in the intimacy of Miss Natasha’s room.  

We also perform our “Christmas Concert” in the dance studio, which is a combination of movement, drama and song.  

Creative expression is a very important part of our curriculum and will be for years to come.   

Children grow through creative outlets and discover more about themselves.

 Manotick Montessori would like to thank all of our parents who came to see the play and we hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Weekend with your families!
