The Children's House, Thornhill was established in 1952 by Veronica Ryan, having first started a class in her own family home with six pupils two years earlier. She trained as a Montessori teacher at Sion Hill in Blackrock, Dublin, and as interest in the Montessori approach spread she decided to build her own school. She travelled to Holland to visit, study and photograph existing Montessori schools there and became friendly with Mario Montessori (Maria's son), who gave her advice on the building. The renowned architect, Arthur Douglas designed the Children's House on the grounds of Veronica's family home and it was to be the very first purpose built Montessori school in Ireland. It still remains an outstanding building of its type set in a garden amid trees with suitable play areas and equipment for children.
