Welcome to Westside Montessori School where students radiate self-confidence and exhibit a love for learning. Let us help your child achieve their fullest potential. With two locations in the heart of downtown Toronto’s Kensington Market and Dufferin Grove, Westside Montessori School is the ideal environment for your urban family.

Learning

tailored to your child

Every child is an individual, captivated by different things at different times. We personalize your child’s learning experience by creating individualized lesson plans based on their interests, level of understanding and experiences.

In this manner, every child is introduced to all aspects of our curriculum at the right time in their development.

Westside Montessori School in Toronto

Choosing the right school for your child is a complex decision that should include examining the characteristics of your child, your family and the school itself. For example, if a commitment to the environment is important to you and your family’s belief system, your child’s school should reflect this commitment.

Established 2008

Westside Montessori School (WMS) opened in the historical city-owned Water Works Building on Richmond Street West in Toronto with just five children.

WMS outgrew its space within five years. 10 years ago, WMS opened its doors at 95 Bellevue Avenue Kensington Market and enrollment grew to nearly a 100 students.

Bursting at the seams, it was time for expansion. In the Spring of 2020, Westside purchased a large stand-alone building on a tree lined property across from Dufferin

Grove Park. WMS is now home to over 160 students aged 18 months to 14 years old.
