Follow Your Child's Progress
You can follow your child’s progress using Tapestry, where staff upload observations of the children each week to provide a learning journey of their time here at The Rainbow Montessori.
We also hold information evenings, stay and play mornings & parents evenings, where you can chat with staff about the progress of your child. We also hold regular, more informal, social events throughout the year to get to know other members of our Rainbow community and to speak to staff in more informal environments.

We will support all attempts at potty training.
Your child is required to attend the minimum of two sessions. The Nursery places are available to all children regardless of race, gender, disability or religion.
