Any experience of the Village Montessori Blackheath?

I'd be interested to know as I'm considering it for dd2

Bump

Probably too late (sorry) but I went and had a look there and was told that they had a 3-year long waiting list!

I did like the school though.

We ended up using another Montessori nursery, which has been great, but it is in Telegraph Hill.

Good luck!

yes it is vg

Yes, we've used it for nearly two years and it is FAB. It is 'proper' Montessori, meaning all the staff have a Mont. qualification, as opposed to just one or two managers who employ NVQ only nursery nurses. It's only 2 3/4 hours a day, but they learn so much in that time, not least social skills and resolving conflicts by talking (instead of violence ). And numeracy, literacy, music - when they're ready as there's no pressure to learn if they don't want to - very refreshing approach. Go visit if you haven't already - waiting lists can be flexible so you never know.
