Dear Families, Thank you for considering Elimatta Montessori and Early Learning Centre for your child’s early education journey.

Our purpose-built centre is situated on spacious acreage in the lush, green, leafy neighbourhood of Narre Warren North, at the foothills of beautiful Dandenong Ranges, surrounded by picturesque countryside.

The name "Elimatta" holds deep significance, rooted in the rich cultural heritage of Australia's First Nations people. In Aboriginal language, "Elimatta" means "our home," symbolizing a place of belonging, safety, and nurturing — a perfect representation of the environment we strive to create for children and families at Elimatta Montessori and Early Learning Centre. This name reflects our commitment to inclusivity, respect, and connection with the land and its traditional custodians.By choosing "Elimatta," we honour the enduring wisdom and spirit of Aboriginal culture, fostering a sense of community where every child feels at home and valued for who they are. At Elimatta Montessori, "our home" is more than a name — it’s a promise to provide a nurturing space where young minds can explore, learn, and grow in harmony with the world around them.

Guided by the Montessori philosophy and complemented by modern early childhood education practices, we celebrate diversity and honour the cultural and individual backgrounds of our families. Through hands-on, child-centered experiences, we inspire independence, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning while integrating sustainability and a connection to nature into our practices.We believe every child is unique and deserves a learning environment tailored to their individual needs and interests. Our mission is to guide each child’s natural development and empower them to explore, discover, and grow confidently and compassionately.

By valuing collaborative partnerships with families and committing to excellence in education and care, we aim to nurture confident, compassionate, and capable young individuals who are ready to thrive in their community and beyond.We warmly invite you to join us in this partnership between families and educators in shaping your child’s early experiences.
