Annual Scitech Family Night 2024
2024-08-09 17:00 - 20:00 | Scitech, City West Centre Corner Railway Street &, Sutherland St, west Perth, WA, 6005, Australia
We are excited about our upcoming annual Scitech Night!
This is a favourite event among our school community, loved by kids and adults alike!
Once per year, Scitech opens its doors exclusively to our school community, so the kids have endless access to all their favourite Scitech activities and shows at the Science Theatre while having fun with their friends. The parents can socialise and meet some new faces while having peace of mind about the whereabouts of their children.
As always, there will be the option to pre-order pizzas for dinner (or you can pack your own picnic dinner). Make sure to bring spare change for snacks, treats, and drinks from our famous Montessori bakers.
See SchoolStream to get your tickets!

Discussion Night: Assessment
2024-08-13 19:00 - 20:30 | The Montessori School Kingsley, 18 Montessori Place, Kingsley, WA, 6026, Australia
We would like to invite you to join us for an evening of Q&A.
Assessment will be the topic of this discussion night.
Grading and comparative reporting, which ranks a child’s achievement against the performance of other members of the class, is not compatible with Montessori philosophy and practice. Rather, our assessing and reporting on student achievement is detailed, explicit, and individualised – in line with Montessori practice and philosophy.
Come along to our discussion night to hear about how we assess student learning, and how they assess themselves in the absence of traditional ‘testing’ regimes.

Discussion Night: Respect - Grace & Courtesy
2026-05-19 19:00 - 20:30 | The Montessori School Kingsley, 18 Montessori Place, Kingsley, WA, 6026, Australia
Parent Discussion Evening
Respect: Grace & Courtesy
At The Montessori School Kingsley, respect is at the heart of everything we do. It is modelled, practised, and experienced daily by our students across all areas of the School.
We warmly invite you to join us for our upcoming Parent Discussion Evening, where we will explore the Montessori concept of Respect: Grace & Courtesy and what it looks like in our community and beyond.
As part of the evening, we will share a short video created by our students. In this video, students reflect on what respect, grace, and courtesy mean to them. Their voices provide a meaningful and authentic insight into how these values are understood and lived within our School.
This will be a valuable opportunity to connect as a community, reflect on an important aspect of the Montessori approach, and deepen our shared understanding.
We look forward to welcoming you for an engaging and thoughtful evening together.
