Preparing
Young People for Life
The Montessori method is founded on the idea that children learn best when they are free to explore and learn at their own pace, in an environment that is specifically prepared and designed to support their development.

Melbourne Montessori College (MMC) is a highly regarded, thriving independent school with two Melbourne campuses in Brighton and Caulfield.
The Montessori method is founded on the idea that children learn best when they are free to explore and learn at their own pace, in an environment that is specifically prepared and designed to support their development.
In a Montessori classroom, children are encouraged to be self-directed learners and to take an active role in their own education. The teacher serves as a guide and facilitator and provides a supportive and inclusive environment that fosters creativity, independence, and a love of learning.
Celebrating 50 years of exceptional Montessori Education
From its humble beginnings as a two-classroom primary school in Brighton run by parent volunteers, MMC has evolved into a wonderful community providing Montessori education to students aged 18 months to 18 years across two campuses.
