He's always smiling and happy to go to his "red school" which is what he calls kiddy junction. The meal program is also excellent, as a busy parent, it's good know my kid is eating healthy at school. I'm always so impressed with the meals they have (examples, Japanese pasta gratin, Italian sausage edamame risotto, pasta with salmon and garlic sauce) I feel so lucky to have found such a great centre! No complaints at all!!!!!! :)

While we were there, we called and mailbox is not assign and we email Shaun also. I guess the first RED flag was it took him around a week to even get back to us for this appointment. Definitely not bring my kid here. I'll make sure this is posted everywhere online for other parents to see. Place was not very secure too, someone could have easily came into the premises and took all the toys away.

My son Giuliano attended Kensington Montessori when he was 4 years old, where he was taught by Mrs…read more Athina. From the moment we walked into her classroom, it was clear how much care and dedication she put into creating a nurturing and structured learning environment. Her classroom was always neat, organized, and filled with engaging educational materials, hands-on activities, and books that supported each child's development. There were many children Giuliano's age, and it was so comforting to see how happy and excited they were to be there each day. My son truly enjoyed going and developed a love for learning early on. Mrs. Athina took the time to guide him not only academically--with early arithmetic--but also with important life skills like sharing, independence, and responsibility. Through her support, Giuliano built confidence and strong foundational skills that I am still grateful for today. I am also so proud to see her daughter, Marisa Dritsas, continue this beautiful legacy. Her Montessori classroom is absolutely stunning--bright, clean, and thoughtfully designed with natural materials and child-sized learning spaces that encourage independence and exploration. The outdoor area is just as lovely, giving children space to play, learn, and connect with nature. Marisa is calm, patient, and genuinely caring. She goes above and beyond to support each child's individual needs and learning pace. The Montessori approach is truly reflected in her work--fostering independence, creativity, and confidence in every child. I highly recommend Kensington Montessori to any parent looking for a warm, supportive, and enriching environment for their child's early education.

We've had such a wonderful experience at Burnaby Montessori School. The teachers are truly…read moreexceptional--nurturing, patient, and incredibly attentive to each child's individual needs. It's clear they genuinely love what they do, and it shows in how happy and engaged the kids are every day. The activities are thoughtfully planned and well-rounded, encouraging creativity, curiosity, and independence. My daughter especially loves the practical life skills--she comes home excited to show us how she can pour, sweep, and take care of her belongings. It's amazing to see her confidence grow through these everyday responsibilities. The materials and learning environment are excellent -- clean, inviting, and filled with enriching tools that support both play-based and structured learning. I've seen so much growth in my daughter since she started, both socially and developmentally. Highly recommend to any family looking for a warm, engaging, and supportive preschool!

Our son and eldest daughter attended the school over a span of 5 years (3 years for Emma, and 2.5 years for Joshua). Our family will be moving out of province this month, and we are heart broken Joshua will not be able to complete his final year at the school. Both of our children loved attending, and we knew that our children were always well looked after and cared for every single day they attended. To gover all they have learned would take a few pages, but one of the highlights was Emma's love of music, the piano in particular, and Joshua's love of math. Discovery Montessori really instilled the "love of learning" into our children and we can not say "thank you" enough. We will miss everyone at the school so much.

Dropping my little girl to school I often worried for her welfare in my absence. However, I made several attempts to communicate my concerns to the teacher and each time I was met with little more than a blank stare. I later learned that my daughter became upset at school one day, inconsolably so, and rather than call me to take the matter in hand, the awful teacher sent her to a corner to cry herself to sleep! I thought this quite abusive, particularly given that my child did not arrive at school in bad humour, nor lacking for sleep, so that was the end of it for me. What a terrible woman, and what an awful introduction to school for my sensitive, intelligent little girl. Changing to another school for the 2011/12 school year, she is flourishing, so parents need to know that the school one chooses must not only be carefully considered, but carefully monitored as well. Never allow a teacher to brush aside your concerns. Ask a lot of questions, and don't leave until you get the answers.Though billing itself as a parent participation preschool, the BFLP is not a member of the Council of Parent Participation Preschools in British Columbia, and it is little wonder indeed.

The teachers were great and seem very fair with all the kids, no favouritism at all. They are a play-based preschool but in the end my daughter learnt her alphabet and how to write her name. My daughter is currently in her second year here and I will definitely put my son here as well. I think aside from the teachers the playground just outside the school is perfect for toddlers. My only gripe is that special outings tend not to be scheduled during the same time as school time so you will have to reschedule your day during these days although they are few and they give ample notice.

There are 2 rooms (1-3 year olds) and (3-5 year olds), an indoor gym on the top floor, an outdoor playground and lots of outdoor space to play (fields, forest and lovely walking trails). My son loves Dinosaur Daycare and I know that he feels loved and secure while there. It's a bonus that he is also learning and developing as much as he is, but in a caring environment like that, it makes complete sense. I cannot recommend Dinosaur Daycare enough.
