Dear Friend,
 
It is almost two years ago that we left our jobs in the summer of 2020 to set up Montessori Musings. Our aim: to provide Montessorians around the world with a place to come together to find support from each other, to offer provocations, inviting the community to reflect on their practice. At a time when the world was (and still is) in flux, we hoped to offer critical engagement with Montessori’s work, connecting it with current practice and child development theory, to articulate the Montessori legacy to all interested in the future of education and its reform. Our wish: to ensure our children grow up with the tools and the confidence to cope with the complexities and uncertainties of the modern world in the 21st Century.

We could not have offered the Montessori Community the breadth of expertise without your support. We were overwhelmed by your generosity as you stepped up and offered your valuable input, sharing your knowledge with the Montessori Community. Speakers, facilitators, bloggers, those of you who simply inspired us with a nudge and a nod, and of course, our wonderful sponsor, My Montessori Child; we are indebted to you all and we invite you to join us at our last webinar of this academic year as we wish to raise a glass and say "thank you".
 
This last webinar takes place on Tuesday 5 July at 19.00 (BST). In this webinar, we hope to come together with everyone who has joined us on our Montessori Musings journey since we hosted our first webinar on 15 July 2020 when we explored whether it is only the child's work if is freely chosen by the child. In our final webinar before the summer, we will celebrate all of you who have supported our work as speakers, facilitators and blog post contributors. We will pause to remember Marlene Barron and consider her excellent article: Montessori and the Post Modern World as we reflect on the role of Montessori education in the 21st Century. We will also recognise the generosity of the Montessori Community as we celebrate the funds raised by you to support Sparkle Malawi. We do hope you will join us and you can register here. We will send a reminder email of this webinar the weekend before.

We will continue to offer our webinars next year although on a slightly scaled-back level with monthly webinars and newsletters focusing on topics suggested by the Community, interspersed with more theoretical webinars where we connect various child development theorists with Montessori's own work. We do hope to continue to be able to draw on your kind and generous support as we continue our work. You make the Community happen!
We very much hope to see you on the 5th of July.

With our warmest wishes,
