Friends of Southern Skies Montessori
We are creating Queensland's first trauma-informed, Montessori Special Assistance School, with campuses planned for the Sunshine Coast and Ipswich, supporting young people across South East Queensland who have felt misunderstood, overwhelmed or disengaged from education.
A growing community of families, educators and supporters helping create a different future for young people.
Share a few details and you could be a Friend within 30 seconds.
