Established in 1952, Heathmont Bilingual Montessori Early Learning (HBMEL) has been a cornerstone of its community for nearly seven decades, offering exceptional education to children in a nurturing environment. As a 65-place kindergarten, HBMEL is dedicated to providing quality early learning experiences that have a lasting impact on its students.
At HBMEL, we are proud to be registered for Child Care Subsidy and State Kindergarten funding, ensuring that families have access to financial support for their child's education. Our unique approach combines the Montessori philosophy with bilingual instruction and offers an integrated kindergarten and prep program through a long daycare model.
One of our key offerings is the inclusion of Chinese as a second language, providing our students with a valuable skill that prepares them for an increasingly globalised world. Additionally, we offer a variety of specialist programs in the afternoons to cater to each child's interests and talents.
Our comprehensive Bilingual Montessori program runs from Monday to Friday between 8:30 am and 4:30 pm ( Rainbow room ) and 9:00 am and 5:00 pm ( Mural room ). Both programs are designed to cater to children at different developmental stages:
- Early Starters Program (2 years old)
- 3-Year-Old Kindergarten
- 4-Year-Old Kindergarten
- Primary School Prep Program (conditions apply)
Upon completion of our full Cycle 1 program (including the 3-year-old, 4-year-old, and prep programs), children have the opportunity to transition seamlessly into Cycle 2 at Mitcham Primary School. This collaboration allows for continuity in your child's educational journey within a supportive framework.
To ensure that all children benefit from our programs effectively, we have specific enrolment criteria in place:
- Early Starters & Kinder Programs: Minimum attendance required is three days per week.
- Prep Program: Full-time attendance five days per week is compulsory.
