About this book
In 1913, four Australian teachers attended inspirational educator Dr. Maria Montessori's first international training course in Rome. That same year Blackfriars School in Sydney was one of the first schools in the world to adopt the Montessori approach. A century later, Montessori continues to be at the forefront of innovative education in Australia, with 200 schools and centers featuring Indigenous learning programs and a recognized curriculum of its own. This book is the first comprehensive history of the revolutionary Montessori teaching method in Australia.
