Admissions (updated Dec. 2023) 

 

Our Admissions cycle for new students 19 months through 5.8 years at entry begins in early January each year, looking towards the upcoming September. Nido / infant program interest is year-round; with most parents looking about 12-14 months prior to care being needed.

 

Pre-Application Interviews occur via ZOOM, as long as space is available in our programs. Write to admissions@aspenhillmontessori.ca with your child's date of birth, target entry date, and if your child has been in care outside of the home before. We will send you more information about our Centres and about our intake process. If you have multiple children that you are hoping to place with our Centre, we strongly recommend reviewing our Sibling Guide. Siblings are interviewed independently, and we do not guarantee placement of all children in a sibling group.

 

Once a space is available, we invite you to register for a Pre-Application Interview. During the Interview, we review your family's needs, and explore your child's personality and learning journey, and discover more about their social, emotional and how they are reaching appropriate ages-and-stages milestones. Our goal is to ensure before entry that our approach to learning will be a good match for your child's needs. We will ensure that you have read our Parent Handbook (Centre policies) and current fees, and answer any questions you have about our Centre. If you are offered placement, the Admissions team will invite you to apply. If we are not able to accommodate your child, we may offer a waitlist space or suggest other potential programs in the area.

​

We offer public Open Houses each fall, generally in October and November. Learn more and register to any upcoming events!

 

We do not provide in-person tours out of respect for our current students' work cycles, but we do have video building tours as well as an active social media presence to review. Links to these are sent to you once we have made contact via e-mail.

​

We look forward to connecting with your family via admissions@aspenhillmontessori.ca.
