Ardtona House School

Ardtona House School is a private Montessori‑based institution in South Dublin that provides early years education from the pre‑school stage (2 years 8 months) through to 2nd Class (approximately 9 years). The school prides itself on small class sizes, allowing each child’s potential to be recognised and respected within a caring, inclusive environment. Classrooms have been newly renovated and are equipped with a wide range of Montessori materials as well as modern Clevertouch interactive touch‑screens, creating a learner‑friendly atmosphere that supports both independent and guided learning. Outdoor learning forms a core part of the daily programme, with an extensive garden that includes a forest area, den, mud kitchen and varied play equipment. This space offers year‑round opportunities for children to explore, develop physical skills and engage with nature. The school also runs an After‑School Club during term time, providing a homemade hot dinner and a range of indoor and outdoor activities, reinforcing the holistic, child‑centred approach that underpins its curriculum.
