Bayside Montessori School Bayside Montessori School is a private preschool and kindergarten in Kingston, Ontario. Founded as a Montessori school in 1989, Bayside Montessori School provides its students with the highest calibre of education. Our Montessori classroom is made up of children of mixed-ages, ranging from 30 months to 5 years and each child usually has the same teacher for three years. The mixed-age grouping corresponds to Maria Montessori’s theory of child development, which is based on three-year cycles. In our multi-age setting, the children learn from each other, and because of each other. Younger children get a chance to look ahead to what is coming next by watching the older children. Older children have the opportunity to reinforce their knowledge by sharing it with the younger children. Because of their interaction, the children learn to take responsibility for themselves and for each other. They also learn to get along with children of differing ages and abilities, to respect each other’s work and workspace, and to treat one another with courtesy. respect and dignity. 1212 Woodbine Rd., Kingston, ON K7P 2X6 Email: baysideadmin@gmail.com Phone: (613)561-6580 https://baysidemontessorischool.org/
