Our Perspective on Fredericton Montessori Academy

Fredericton Montessori Academy (FMA) provides a stimulating and nurturing environment for kids from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 7. FMA offers a Montessori curriculum that involves learning through investigation and discovery. Since not all kids learn the same way or at the same pace, it has a flexible curriculum tailored to kids’ learning needs and interests. The school offers acceleration and enrichment in a variety of subjects including French and Spanish, music, theatre, and the performing arts. Physical education at FMA focuses on fitness and cooperation rather than competition. Consistent with the Montessori approach, kids have lots of freedom to explore and pursue their natural curiosity and interests, which often leads to happy and engaged learners who excel academically.
