Vancouver Montessori Conference October 22, 23 2010

The BCMA Montessori Conference in Vancouver this past weekend was very informative. There were parents, teachers and administrators from Montessori schools all over BC and Alberta. The opportunity to network with, share ideas with and communicate with other Montessorrians was awesome! The speaker Catherine McTamaney was inspiring to listen to. It has renewed my interest in and committment to Montessori. I would invite you check out her book "The Tao of Montessori".

The B.C. Montessori Association is composed of Montessorians in British Columbia. Their membership includes teachers, teachers-in-training, trainers, school-owners, administrators, suppliers, and parents. They are held together by a common bond; a love and respect for the Montessori ideals. Montessori Parents and Teachers are welcome to join. Check out their website at BCMA Website.

I was honoured to be elected to the Board of Directors at the BCMA Annual General Meeting during the conference. I look forward to promoting and fostering relationships with other Montessori schools in BC and Alberta on behalf of the PGMES.
