Treetops Montessori School

Treetops is a Montessori and International Baccalaureate School situated in the incredible natural environment of Darlington, in the hills east of Perth. Treetops’ nurturing environment provides children with a broad, harmonious and thorough education from Playgroup through to Year 12. The Montessori method has longevity world-wide and integrates effectively with the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme offered at Treetops.

Treetops Montessori and IB World School is excited to announce the addition of the International Baccalaureate Career-Related Programme (CP) to its range of year 11 and 12 options. The CP compliments the existing Diploma Programme (DP) which had been offered at Treetops since 2007.  Treetops School is the only accredited IBDP Year 11 and 12 provider in the Eastern Perth Hills, and one of only a few schools in Western Australia to achieve this standard.

Formed in 1989, Treetops School is a close-knit community of parents, staff and students, which strives to assist children to develop to their full potential, to be happy and peaceful, to grow in knowledge and confidence and to have respect for themselves and others.

We believe students should be presented with a challenging and broad academic environment that encourages intellectual inquiry and critical thinking. Education is the shared responsibility of students, family and school. Nurturing curiosity and creativity is the key to stimulating exploration and discovery throughout life.

Students learn best when they are actively engaged in authentic learning experiences. Treetops provides outstanding education in Numeracy, Literacy, Science, Music and the Arts, with a particular focus on the development of the whole child. Our schools’ environment provides children with a broad, harmonious and thorough education from Playgroup to High School. Treetops School a Montessori school from Early Years through Primary School, transitioning through High School to an International Baccalaureate High School education.

Treetops is an innovative and deeply caring centre of educational excellence. Rooted in Montessori pedagogical principles of child centred educational approaches and the notion of ‘help me to do it myself’, learning at Treetops is tailored to meet the diverse individual needs of our students.

Treetops uniquely blends Montessori learning approaches from the Children’s House (3 to 5 year olds) through to the International Baccalaureate Diploma and International Baccalaureate Career-related Programmes in years 11 and 12. Treetops is one of only two schools in Australia to be accredited to deliver the Career-related Programme. These excellent academic opportunities occur within a small educational community, characterised by its peaceful and very positive outlook.
