(02) 9072 0739Welcome to Alexandria Montessori Academy!
Alexandria Montessori Academy delivers an outstanding Montessori Education Program for infants, toddlers and preschoolers aged six weeks to six years in a long day care format. The campus is open on weekdays from 7:30am to 6:00pm and is conveniently located at Building 2 in Goodman's Sydney Corporate Park at 160 Bourke Road, Alexandria NSW 2015. Access to the centre is also available from 75 O'Riordan Street, Alexandria. Our Alexandria child care centre has on-site parking and also offers a shuttle bus service to Central Station.
Montessori education stands apart from traditional childcare by prioritising personalised learning. In our Montessori Academy centres, each child's unique style, stage, and interests are catered to, fostering independence, confidence, and a lifelong love for learning. Montessori environments provide specially designed materials and guidance for hands-on, active learning, empowering children to discover their full potential.
Our Alexandria child care centre offers three prepared classroom environments that are vibrant and well-resourced with the leading Montessori Materials available internationally. The Montessori Materials in each classroom are divided into five Curriculum Areas, including Practical Life, Sensorial, Mathematics, Language and Culture.
What's unique about the Montessori Materials, is that each material is designed with a control of error, which leads children towards understanding through repetition and practice. As we say at Montessori Academy, practice makes permanent. Montessori Materials increase in difficulty as children progress through the Montessori Education Program. In this way, learning is child-centred, and tailored to the developmental needs and interests of each individual student.

Kindergarten/Preschool Programs
Kindergarten/Preschool Programs
Montessori early learning centres differ from conventional preschools and childcare facilities. They create an ideal learning environment, offer customized educational materials, and provide guidance to support holistic child development. Montessori education is active, adaptable to each child's pace, encourages self-correction, and aligns with individual interests. Its overarching objective is to equip children with the knowledge and abilities needed for lifelong learning, fostering confidence, independence, and a thirst for knowledge.
About the curriculum
About the curriculum
The curriculum at Montessori Academy follows a blended approach, drawing on both Montessori principles and the Early Years Learning Framework. The curriculum follows five key learning areas:
- Practical Life: exercises and activities that children observe in daily life to develop their independence, concentration and fine motor skills.
- Sensorial: activities that help to refine the senses and lay the foundation of early mathematics, language and geometry.
- Mathematics: hands on experiences that teach both abstract and concrete mathematical concepts.
- Language: exercises that help the children to develop their vocabulary and understanding of language.
- Cultural Studies: children learn about culture and community through subjects such as Geography, Botany, Zoology, Science, History, Music and Art.
The educators use Montessori materials to teach the curriculum and tailor the learning to each individual child.
Centre philosophy
Centre philosophy
Montessori education is a personalised approach developed by Dr Maria Montessori, proven successful for over a century. It tailors learning to each child's style, stage, and interests, fostering academic and well-being foundations through hands-on experiences and real-world problem-solving. Montessori educators observe children's interests and guide them toward relevant materials for purposeful and engaging learning. This method acknowledges diverse learning paces and preferences, promoting respect, independence, and freedom for children to direct their own learning, leading to high motivation and a love for learning.

Update: I raised some extremely serious concerns about a specific teacher at this centre to Montessori and they have consistently ignored these concerns and tried to brush them under the rug. Parents beware! I have told the chain that I will remove my review as soon as they have addressed these incredibly upset and concerns but they have continued to ignore them. Read more

What stood out initially was how clean and well-run this place looked from the get-go. We really wanted a more structured approach to our daughter’s care, versus what looked like more chaotic environments in the other centres we looked at. Our daughter is now about 22 months, and she has absolutely blossomed under the care of their excellent educators: Rashika, Alice, Claire, Sona, Gigi, Mimi to name a few. It’s always such a warm environment and our daughter loves going there, has so much fun doing the activities, learning so much, and making new friends all the time. She is constantly surprising us with all the new things she’s learned there… most recently, she just suddenly was able to count to 10 by herself which made my wife and I do a double-take! The educators are all so warm and caring, which puts us at ease as parents. Read more

Our daughter started in the baby room when she was just 8 months old, and the educators were absolutely fantastic. They were incredibly nurturing and attentive, making her feel safe and loved while we were at work. The environment was always relaxed and stimulating, and it was so reassuring to know she was in such good hands.Now, she has transitioned to the toddler room, and she is loving it just as much! The staff has done a great job of helping her adjust to the new routine, and she comes home every day excited to tell us about her friends and the fun activities they did. We're so grateful for the consistent care and positive experiences she has had from the very beginning. We highly recommend this center to any family. Read more
