Oak Tree Montessori is a child-led learning community founded by Montessori parents and teachers. We offer a nurturing, Montessori-based tuition group for home-educated, primary-age children in Bristol and North Somerset.
With authentic Montessori materials and hands-on activities, we foster independence, curiosity, and confidence. Rooted in Montessori values, our community provides a warm, supportive space where children can grow into capable, compassionate individuals who love learning.
Our motto is purposeful learning through discovery. We nurture children’s natural desire to explore the world, understand themselves and make friends.
We honour each child’s unique developmental path, offering a carefully prepared Montessori environment that nurtures their intrinsic motivation and love for learning.
Through freedom within a structured environment, children develop self-discipline, responsibility, and a deep sense of purpose, guided by Montessori principles.
Repetition with purposeful work leads to deep understanding and independence, helping children refine their skills and build confidence through self-correcting materials.
Our Montessori materials are scientifically designed to cultivate hands-on, self-directed exploration, allowing children to internalise complex concepts through concrete experience.
Embedded in daily life, Montessori lessons in grace and courtesy foster a respectful, inclusive, and collaborative community where children learn to navigate social interactions with empathy and care.
Children are welcome to wear comfortable clothing, including slippers or indoor shoes. We encourage them to bring clothing that is appropriate for the weather eg waterproofs and wellies, or sun-hats - which can be stored in their bag, ready for when they need it.
We work in partnership with parents to build community and to ensure each child receives the support they need.
