About Us
Montessori Eco School is an ISASA and South African Montessori Association accredited, GDE registered, pre- and primary school.
Located in the Fourways area it consists of two campuses; Singing Forest (babies to age five) and Chartwell House (toddlers to grade 7) – which feeds into well-known high schools in the area.
We believe that children are born with an innate curiosity which, when fanned into flame, unlocks their potential. Rooted in a strong set of values anchored in sustainability, conservation and respect for all living creatures, we provide children with a happy, conscious childhood experience which lays a solid foundation for their high school years.

Our Story
Set within the Chartwell Conservancy, our 3 hectare campus features a labyrinth, miniature horses, an apiary of 10 working bee hives, a food forest, an eco pond, a wetland, climbing trees, jungle gyms, a sandpit and tame bunnies. From time to time we are visited by mongoose, hedgehogs, terrapins and crabs from the wetland, where we watch the red bishops nest and herons feast on their tilapia breakfasts.
Our aim within this beautiful natural setting, is to nurture the holistic development, peace and happiness of your child, so that he / she may thrive.
Well equipped with the full spectrum of Montessori equipment, learning becomes fascinating and a natural extension of the child’s curiosity.
With an emphasis on respect, integrity, community and diligence, we strive to help your child experience the truth that ‘life is beautiful!’.
Our well qualified and experienced team live out their calling daily by educating the children in their care in the most stimulating, hands on ways possible. Join us for an unforgettable schooling experience.
