Outdoor Learning & Nature Connection

Our Vision

Our vision is to provide a Montessori education with an emphasis on outdoor learning.

Our Mission

Our mission at Little Diggers Montessori is to empower children to develop and grow holistically, engaging in a nature based environment with real, life enriching experiences which encourage curiosity and promote the joy of learning.

Inspiring the minds of the future

Additional Provisions

Along with our excellent Montessori and Forest School provision we also include the following additional provisions at each nursery:

• Beach school trips
• Farm visits and other outings
• Yoga
• Cookery
• Special visitors
• Gardening

This is a growing list as we are always on the look out for new experiences to add!

As well as Early Years childcare and education we offer:

Forest Holiday Clubs at our Sidlesham and Bosham Sites

This is open to all local children from the age of 3-8 years old throughout the holidays (all except the Christmas holidays). We offer 9am-3pm days and 8am-6pm days, doing an array of Forest School activities and games each day. Enquire now to find out more.

Please note priority on booking dates will be given to all current parents or the ‘Little Diggers Family’ before being publicised to the wider community on our social media pages.

Little Diggers’ Little School at our Itchenor Site

This is open to the home schooled and flexi-schooled community to compliment their home learning. Our qualified Teachers, Forest School Leaders and Montessori Practitioners will work with your children to encourage a relationship with the natural world, whilst offering opportunities to learn new and transferable skills. A range of learner-centred processes and supported risks develop resilient, confident, independent and creative children.
