Primary Classroom (3 through 6 year olds)

What Can We Do for Your Child?

Where Curiosity Thrives and Independence Blossoms

At Oak Arbor School, we understand how important these early years are for your child — years filled with wonder, discovery, and growth. Our Montessori approach nurtures curiosity and confidence, helping your child develop the independence and joy of learning that will last a lifetime.

A Place to Explore, Learn, and Belong

Our Primary classroom is a thoughtfully prepared space where children are encouraged to explore at their own pace. Each area — from Language and Math to Art and Culture — invites hands-on learning and quiet concentration. Here, your child can build focus, independence, and a deep love for discovery.

Caring Guides for Every Step

Our educators are more than teachers — they are careful observers and gentle guides who meet each child where they are. By understanding your child’s individual pace and personality, they create an environment that inspires confidence and growth.

A Schedule That Meets Your Family’s Needs

For the 2025–2026 school year, we are offering:

3 mornings per week for all ages (3–5 years old)
2 full days & 3 half days for Kindergarten (P3) students

School Hours

Half Day: 8:30 AM – 12:20 PM
Full Day: 8:30 AM – 3:10 PM

Placement by Age

P1 (1st year): Must be fully potty trained and 3 by July 1
P2 (2nd year): Must be 4 by July 1
P3 (Kindergarten): Must be 5 by July 1

We use a July 1 cutoff to ensure children are developmentally ready for their class year — socially, emotionally, and academically. This allows each child to thrive in a setting that meets them right where they are.

Let’s discover together what your child can become.
