Welcome to Red Door Montessori

“What should we call our homeschool?”

I mulled over the question. My husband and I pondered together. We consulted our children. A few different ideas were tossed back and forth, but nothing quite fit.

“What about Red Door Montessori?” someone suggested. We were already sharing produce and eggs with our neighbours under the name “Red Door Homestead”. Red is one of the colours of each of our home countries (I’m Canadian; Coleman is American). Red symbolises love; we want to foster a love of learning, and a love for our neighbour. It’s the colour of fire, passion; we strive to encourage exploration, innovation, child-led risk-taking and big work. And of course, it’s the colour of our front door.

Here at Red Door Montessori, we hope you will find something to inspire and encourage you, something to kindle a love of learning, and a love of useful service to the neighbour. Thanks for stopping by.
