Inclusion is when everyone can stay in the classroom for everything.
That’s inclusion.
Not leaving the room
and being told you can join your friends later at lunch or break.
I keep hearing that children can go to inclusion bases
and then just “rejoin their friends”.
But I don’t think that comes from standing in someone else’s shoes.
Because if you actually stood in that child’s shoes,
you’d know it’s not that simple.
You’d know what it feels like to walk out of the classroom
while everyone else stays.
To miss the joke that everyone laughed at.
To miss that shared moment.
To come back in and not quite get it.
Slightly behind.
Slightly out of sync.
To walk into the playground
and try to find where you fit.
You can’t just step back into friendships like nothing happened.
Inclusion isn’t something you dip in and out of.
It’s something you feel.
And if a child has to keep leaving the room to cope,
then we need to ask honestly—
have we really included them at all?

Dear Parents,

As our past children prepare to sit the SEA exam this Thursday, we join you in wishing them calm minds, steady hearts, and confident spirits. Their journey began with us at preschool, and we are proud to see how far they’ve come.

Please remind them that SEA is just one step in their bright future—what matters most is their effort, resilience, and the love that surrounds them. We are cheering them on and keeping them in our thoughts.

With every success, big or small, know that they carry the foundation we built together. May Thursday be a day of focus and courage, and may the days ahead bring joy and celebration.

With love and encouragement,
Appleville Montessori Family

Today we remember Coach Gian McCollin, whose dedication, kindness, and spirit touched Appleville Montessori both as a parent and as our school’s football coach. His legacy of care and encouragement will live on in our community. We extend our deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. May he rest in peace.
