Curious about life at Marigold Montessori?

We have answers to the questions parents ask most, from what a typical day looks like to how we help each child thrive.

You can visit our Contact Us page and contact us by telephone or email to schedule a visit.

In a Montessori environment, children are free to choose activities that interest them within clear, respectful boundaries. Teachers act as guides rather than instructors, encouraging children to develop at their own pace. The result is a calm, focused atmosphere where children thrive both academically and emotionally.

We offer a settling in session for all children joining us which takes place at the beginning of their starting term. The children will meet their teachers, classmates and explore their classroom.

We recommend registering your child as soon as possible to secure a place and avoid disappointment. To visit our nursery, you can book a tour by emailing info@mgmontessori.co.uk

To register please visit our admissions page and complete the registration form. Our Registrar will then contact you to confirm if there is an available place or if you will be placed on the waiting list. Please note that registration does not guarantee a place.

If there is an available place, our Registrar will send you an offer letter requesting a deposit of £500. Once the deposit is transferred, the place will be secured, and a confirmation letter will be sent. The deposit will be refunded in your final invoice, provided that 12 weeks’ notice is given.

We open at 8.00am and close at 6.00pm.

Our in-house chef makes fresh lunches and snacks that are healthy and nutritious. Children are served a 4-course lunch daily. We try and use organic food where possible. Promoting healthy eating is a priority at Marigold Montessori.

A typical day includes a blend of Montessori work cycles, creative arts, music, outdoor play, group storytime, and quiet reflection. Our schedule balances structure and freedom, ensuring each child’s needs are met.

Children at Marigold Montessori go outside every day, weather permitting, to enjoy our secure garden and outdoor play area. We believe outdoor time is an essential part of a child’s development, it supports physical health, encourages independence, and nurtures curiosity about the natural world.

We have many extracurricular activities such as Spanish, yoga, music, dance and football included in the fees.
