Flu season is here, and a little extra care goes a long way. While we encourage fun, laughter, and exploration, let’s also keep our families healthy.

According to Vancouver Coastal Health Authority, here are some simple ways to prevent the flu:

✨ Get vaccinated – the flu shot is free for everyone 6 months and older
✨ Wash hands often – with soap and water or sanitizer
✨ Cover coughs and sneezes – use your elbow or a tissue
✨ Stay home when unwell – rest helps recovery and keeps others safe
✨ Keep a healthy routine – sleep well, eat nourishing foods, and stay active

Together we can enjoy the season while keeping our children safe and healthy.

We are thrilled to begin the 2025–2026 school year at Nido de Montessori.

The classrooms are already alive with curiosity as children explore new materials, ask thoughtful questions, and discover fresh skills each day.

Guided by the Montessori approach, inquiry leads the way as our students learn through hands-on experiences and joyful discovery.

We cannot wait to see all the growth and wonder this year will bring.

Our little chefs put their skills to the test with a homemade fried rice lunch.

From shopping for ingredients at supermarket to preparing the rice and cooking together, the children experienced every step of the process.

Beyond creating a delicious meal, cooking gave them the chance to practice fine motor skills, follow steps in order, and build independence. Hands-on experiences like this help children develop confidence, responsibility, and a love for learning. The best part was enjoying every bite of their own cooking.

What a meaningful day of growth and connection at

What a meaningful day of growth and connection at Nido de Montessori.

We began the morning with an energizing yoga and mindfulness session that set a calm, focused tone for the day. With minds and bodies grounded, our educators then dove into the heart of our professional learning: inquiry-based education.

Together, we explored how curiosity, questions, and wonder can become powerful tools to guide children’s discoveries in the Montessori classroom.

The day was filled with collaboration, reflection, and hands-on activities that allowed our team to think deeply about how to nurture inquiry while honoring each child’s natural desire to learn. We also created a banner to celebrate the shared values that make Nido such a special place for children and educators alike.
