Our vision Banksia will be a well-recognised and sought after Montessori school for children, parents and teachers to develop happily and holistically in all social, emotional and intellectual domains. We will continue to embrace cultural diversity and provide a nurturing, attractive and sustainable environment for learning, work and play. Our values Holistic approach to teaching and learning:  we value the connectedness of mind, body and spirit, enabling teachers at Banksia to pay attention to each child’s physical, social and emotional well being as well as cognitive development. Nurturing environment: our children develop life skills and a passion for discovery and inquiry in a nurturing, non-competitive, non-judgmental environment. Personality traits and values: Banksia graduates will leave our school with high personal values – confidence, independence, resilience and empathy – that will enable them to grow up as well-rounded socially-responsible individuals.
