Both our morning English and afternoon Early Start French Montessori Kindergarten Programs are accredited by the Manitoba Department of Education. The programs exceed provincial curriculum standards and offer enriched learning experiences through the Montessori Method and smaller class size.

Our Music Program is about enjoying and experiencing music as a class. Montessori educator Zan May, a certified Orff instructor, leads the children through singing, moving, listening, and playing instruments. The Orff approach compliments the Montessori method of learning by sequential mastery of new skills.

Musical concepts of rhythm, pitch, melody, and dynamics are gradually introduced and are developed using speech rhythm patterns, singing, body percussion, listening, body movement, and playing instruments. In addition, the music centre in our multi-purpose room offers children the opportunity to enjoy and play musical instruments whenever they choose.

In addition to our Early Start French Kindergarten program, French instruction is provided for all children at the school at least one morning per week. The French program exposes children to basic French vocabulary, music, and culture in a small group setting.

Riverview Montessori encourages and fosters the education of children with special needs. The school is eligible for funding from Manitoba Family Services to hire fully trained Inclusion Support staff to work with children with additional support needs. Although there are variations from year to year, enrollment of children with additional support needs ranges from 5% to 10% of students.
