Humberside was founded in 1987 by Felix Bednarski Molly Galle, and they remain as directors of the school today. As such, there has been a long and consistent attention to the initial intentions for the school, one of those being a fidelity to the core of the Montessori program as described by Maria Montessori through her work. That fidelity to the core of the approach is a particular draw for the families that enroll here, as is the demonstrated attention to maintaining AMI standards in classroom resources and faculty development. Parental involvement in the life of the school is welcome and encouraged, allowing a sense of community that extends nicely beyond the walls of the school proper.
View full reportWith an accredited Montessori program, adapted to the developmental needs of each child, Curlew Montessori School fosters curiosity, autonomy, and intrinsic motivation in learning. Parents often describe the school as a second home, emphasizing its nurturing environment and strong community bonds. The low student-to-teacher ratios, and qualified teachers, are combined with the school’s commitment to providing a bright, spacious, and well-equipped learning environment. Key offerings include French as a second language, nutritious lunch and snack programs, and a large outdoor play space. Despite its small size, the school maintains a vibrant educational culture. Parents choose Curlew Montessori for its quality education, individualized and child-paced learning, and its supportive, beautiful facilities. The school aims to develop complete individuals, adapted to their time, place, and culture, in line with Maria Montessori's educational philosophy.

"Accredited by the prominent Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) established by Dr. Maria Montessori, Humberside Montessori School is found in the heart of the Bloor West Village-High Park neighbourhood in Toronto. Our school was established in 1987 by Felix Bednarski (M.A., A.M.I.) and his wife Molly Galle (RN). We remain dedicated to promoting the educational philosophy envisioned by Dr. Montessori, and we adhere to the principles that are recognized as the international standard for Montessori education."
"At Curlew Montessori School, we provide an enhanced Montessori program, tailored to each child's developmental requirements. Our approach fosters inner drive and autonomous learning, enabling children to progress individually. We instill a deep sense of personal and societal responsibility, along with the joy of achieving excellence. Many parents liken our school to a second home. Reach out via phone or email to arrange your tour. We look forward to meeting you!"
"Our authentic Montessori pedagogy creates carefully designed learning environments that meet our students' social, emotional and intellectual needs. Mixed age learning environments where children stay with the same teacher for multiple years ensures that children are able to learn at their own pace which keeps them at just the right level of challenge. Those who are ready to move on do so, children who need a bit more time to consolidate their learning are also able to thrive."
"Regarded by families as a second home, our school plays a pivotal role as a child's initial step into the academic world. This transition from home to school life establishes strong bonds within classrooms and the school community. With its intimate size, Curlew Montessori School excels in providing personalized care and attention to every child and family, setting us apart."

We see children as immensely capable and revered individuals.
The longstanding relationships that we develop with our families. Students stay connected to our school for many years after graduation and often visit to let us know how they are doing."
"Creating opportunities for parents to fully engage and understand the Montessori philosophy and opportunities to strengthen their parenting knowledge and skills. This is facilitated by organizing and implementing the events such as parent education nights, ongoing discussions about the progress of their child through p/t conferences, classroom observations."
"Some parents might be surprised to know that our students graduate from Humberside Montessori School in Gr. 8 and that we are one of very few Montessori Schools in Canada that have an Adolescent Program (Gr. 7/8 classroom)."
"We may be small, but we are mighty! Though our school may be compact, we uphold an unwavering commitment to top-tier programming, ensuring a vibrant educational culture for both children and their families within this age group."

Dr. Maria Montessori observed that children below the age of six possess a remarkable capacity to soak up knowledge from their environment, driven by an intrinsic motivation to do so. She termed this phenomenon the "absorbent mind" and acknowledged that these formative years offer a unique window of opportunity for learning certain skills that may not be as readily attainable later in life. At Curlew Montessori, we foster the inherent love for learning and exploration that children possess by providing them with chances to independently select and engage in meaningful activities.
In our educational setting, we employ Montessori learning materials to offer children tangible reasons to touch, manipulate, and learn, guided by their individual interests and natural curiosity. Our accredited Montessori program places emphasis on acquiring practical self-help abilities, developing the ability to differentiate between sizes, shapes, and colors, familiarizing with phonetic sounds of the alphabet, progressing towards writing and reading, numerical counting, comprehending number symbols, delving into arithmetic, and exploring subjects like botany, zoology, and geography through hands-on experiences.
All these learning experiences are facilitated by trained Montessori educators, who instill a sense of joy in the process of discovery. Through their own initiatives, children cultivate self-discipline and the capacity to concentrate.
We warmly invite you and your child to join us. Feel free to contact us to schedule a visit and tour our facilities.

Particularly popular in the younger grades (preschool to elementary), but sometimes available all the way up to high school, Montessori schools offer an alternative vision to the standard lesson format of most classrooms. Instead of listening to whole-class lessons, Montessori classrooms allow students to choose which "tasks" or activities interest them. These tasks centre around special Montessori puzzles - their essential feature being they contain a right answer and allow for selfcorrection. A strong emphasis is therefore placed on lessons being concrete and rooted in practical experience, along with students developing a sense of self-sufficiency, confidence and curiosity.

Phonics-intensive
Systematic-phonics programs teach young children to read by helping them to recognize and sound out the letters and syllables of words. Students are then led to blend these sounds together to sound out and recognize the whole word. While other reading programs might touch on phonetics (either incidentally or on a “when needed” basis), systematic phonics teaches phonics in a specific sequence, and uses extensive repetition and direct instruction to help readers associate specific letter patterns with their associated sounds.

Process approach
The process approach to teaching beginner writing aims to get students writing “real things” as much as possible and as soon as possible. The goal is to create the right environmental conditions to encourage a love of writing and a motivation to write well. With children invested in the writing process -- through assignments children find meaningful -- students are then given feedback on how they can improve.

Inquiry
Inquiry-based science emphasizes teaching science as a way of thinking or practice, and therefore tries to get students “doing” science as much as possible -- and not just “learning” it. Students still learn foundational scientific ideas and content (and build on this knowledge progressively); however, relative to expository science instruction, inquiry-based programs have students spend more time developing and executing their own experiments (empirical and theoretical). Students are frequently challenged to develop critical and scientific-thinking skills by developing their own well-reasoned hypothesis and finding ways to test those hypotheses. Projects and experiments are emphasized over textbook learning. Skills are emphasized over breadth of knowledge.

Expanding Communities
The Expanding Communities approach organizes the curriculum around students’ present, everyday experience. In the younger grades, students might learn about themselves, for example. As they move through the grades, the focus gradually broadens in scope: to the family, neighbourhood, city, province, country, and globe. The curriculum tends to have less focus on history than Core Knowledge programs.

Light integration
Computers are used in the classroom from time to time, but integrating technology into everything students do is not a dominant focus. Digital literacy is understood to be a legitimate skill in the 21st century, but not one that should distract from teaching the subject at hand, or more fundamental skills and literacies. The idea is today’s students, being “digital natives”, are likely exposed to computers and new media enough outside the classroom: the role of the school, rather, should be to develop competencies that may otherwise get missed.

Montessori
Montessori programs aimed at preschool and Kindergarten- aged children allow young learners to choose which “tasks” or activities interest them. These tasks centre around special Montessori puzzles -- the essential features of these puzzles being they contain a “right answer” and allow for self-correction. A strong emphasis is therefore placed on learning being concrete and rooted in practical experience, along with children developing a sense of self-sufficiency and confidence. Specially trained teachers act as guides, introducing children to progressively more difficult materials when appropriate. A Montessori classroom is typically very calm and orderly, with children working alone or, sometimes, in small groups.

Children in our Casa program are in mixed-age classrooms (pre K, JK, SK) which allow a child to learn at their own pace in an environment where close attention is paid to meeting a child's physical, social, emotional and intellectual needs.
Within the Casa program, children aged 2 ½ to 6 engage in a diverse age-mixed environment, cultivating a sense of community where they evolve as both learners and mentors. The Montessori approach thrives best when a child consistently attends school for 5 half or full days, spanning the full 3-year Casa primary program. This steadiness empowers your child's teacher to tailor the curriculum according to individual developmental stages and needs and helping the child reached their potential within the first phase of their development, thus preparing them for school and for life!
Student-paced
The main curriculum pace is non-standardized and is HIGHLY responsive to the pacing of individual students, (via differentiated instruction, differentiated assessment, etc). In theory, some students outpace the default/normalized curriculum, while others spend periods "behind schedule" if they need the extra time.

Supportive
A school with a “supportive” academic culture focuses more on process than short-term outcomes: academic performance is a welcomed side-benefit, but not the driving focus. This does not mean the school lacks standards, or has low expectations for its students: a school can have a supportive academic culture and still light the fire of ambition in its students. It does mean, however, the school provides a less intensive culture than schools with a “rigorous” academic classification, and is focused more simply on instilling a love of learning and life-long curiosity.

Balanced
Equal emphasis is placed on a balance of priorities: intellectual, emotional, social and physical cultivation.
Emotional
The goal is to cultivate "emotionally intelligent and confident individuals, capable of leading both themselves and others."
Intellectual
The goal is to cultivate "academically strong, creative and critical thinkers, capable of exercising rationality, apprehending truth, and making aesthetic distinctions."
Although we indicated emotional development as our secondary developmental priority, our holistic approach to education considers all areas of human development as equally important.
In a Montessori setting, children develop a profound sense of independence, critical thinking, and self-motivation. They cultivate a love for learning, becoming adaptable problem solvers and effective communicators. This environment fosters creativity, empathy, and social skills through mixed-age interactions. Montessori nurtures a strong foundation of academic excellence while emphasizing holistic growth, enabling children to thrive academically, emotionally, and socially, and equipping them with skills that serve them well throughout their lives.

ADMISSION POLICY
The admission policy of Curlew Montessori School is based on the educational philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori. We strive to serve a broad range of socioeconomic, religious, cultural, racial and ability groups. Our Program is not designed for children that have specific difficulties
i. e. learning exceptionalities, medical or emotional needs, psychological issues nor are our teachers trained in these areas. For this reason, we are not always able to meet the needs of every child.
Children with mild physical, mental or educational exceptionalities are considered for admission when special care or attention is not required. Reasonable accommodations will be made provided that minor changes to the program are required and that the child does not pose a risk to himself or others. A recent diagnostic assessment by qualified professionals, which identifies the child’s needs within a “mainstream” environment, is required. Assessment prior to admission and consequent periodic assessment may also be required during the school year and prior to re-registration. An educational assessment will determine:
Enrollment of students is made on a first come, first served basis given the following guidelines:
We welcome all students regardless of gender, race, religion or national origin
