About Bright Stars Montessori Preschool (Minchinbury)

The Bright Stars Difference

Bright Stars Montessori Preschool is a long day care facility that offers a unique and holistic approach to child development. The strong educational component of our curriculum allows us to bridge the gap between traditional childcare and kindergarten.

We believe Bright Stars creates an environment where each and every child’s needs are catered for holistically within our center. What does this mean and how is this achieved?

Adhering to an enriching program that utilises the Montessori method of teaching while linking to the early years learning framework. This ensures our programs are diverse and cater for every child.

Visual – prefers pictures and images

Auditory – prefers sounds and musical methods

Verbal – prefers words both in speech and writing

Physical – prefers using their body, sense of touch, muscle memory

Each of the above learning styles are implemented throughout the program in each room and are delivered by our team of experienced educators who are handpicked to compliment and balance the teams skill set.

Working in small groups enhances the learning environment for the child allowing the educators to really engage each and every child while also scanning the group for any child who may be struggling with a particular element. We also have a buffer of staff (on an ordinary day) during the peak learning times to ensure we can direct our attention where it is required without hampering the flow of the room.

We believe school readiness is practiced each and every day. Children need to be introduced to a structured learning environment well before starting kindergarten.

    I asked multiple times before enrolment if there were any male staff members, and was repeatedly told no, but that my concerns were understood and common with parents. Then discovered there is a male owner who comes and goes within the centre and covers shifts, but they leave his name off the roster even though every other staff member, and the other owner, are on the roster available for parents to see who is in the centre around their children. No other owner had been mentioned even though I asked repeatedly. When I sent an email politely asking who the man was, he didnt want to even give me his name (I found it anyway after doing my own searching). Why they're being so evasive about this man's identity, and why they're hiding him from the roster when they preach "transparancy" I don't know but that was the final straw and I pulled my child out. I was also accused of having a "tone" when all I did was enquire about the identity of a man with open access to my child. It was obvious they didn't like to be questioned. Previous incidences I witnessed included staff berating and snapping at toddlers, ignoring distressed and crying toddlers, high staff turnover, and any time I brought up my concerns I was dismissed, or the blame was put on the CHILDREN (the educator was snapping at that child 'because they're a biter', 'that child cries all the time' - god knows what they were saying about my child when I wasn't around). Total lack of accountability. My child was miserable here, and is now thriving and happy in their new school. I'm so glad I trusted my gut and withdrew from this centre.
