Open Day Incoming: Montessori School Hosts an Event for Curious Kids - 14 June

Shooting for the Stars Montessori in Potchefstroom is throwing open the doors on 14 June 2025 for what promises to be a relaxed, nosey-around kind of Open Day. The school is inviting parents (and their little ones in Grades R through 5) to come poke around the classrooms, check out the facilities, and have a good gander at what the 2025/2026 academic years might look like.

Whether you're just browsing or properly scouting for a place that encourages kids to think, reason, question, and (gasp) experiment, this one’s worth popping in for.

The Details (Yes, Please Bring the Kids)

• Date: Saturday, 14 June 2025

• Time: 10:00–12:00

• Grades: R to 5

• Venue: 14 Neethling Street, Baillie Park, Potchefstroom

What’s It All About?

The school is opening its gates to parents and guardians keen on Montessori education, that means more hands-on learning and less sitting quietly in rows pretending to listen. Shooting for the Stars isn’t just a poetic name; the team behind it is serious about helping kids grow into emotionally grounded, curious, and confident humans (and probably decent at long division too).

Visitors can expect a guided walkabout, plenty of Q&A opportunities with the staff, and maybe a few answers to the classic “but what is Montessori?” question.

So, if your child is entering Grade R to 5 next year, and you're interested in a school where curiosity and independence aren't just buzzwords, 14 June might be worth scribbling into the diary. Plus, it’s only two hours, and they’ll have crayons. Probably.
