Annual Fall Festival

Join us for an afternoon of family fun!
1pm – 5pm

This year’s celebration will be especially meaningful as we cut the ribbon on our brand-new playground, dedicated in honor of school founder, Mary Loyer and her husband Dr. Richard Loyer.

The festival will feature live music by Sweeter Than Wine, delicious food from Hindsight BBQ, pumpkin decorating, face painting, farm animals, a bake sale, games for all ages, and a touch-a-truck experience with the Northfield Fire Company.

Families are also invited to tour our classrooms during an open house and learn more about the Montessori approach. Admission is free and open to the public; alumni, families, and friends are warmly encouraged to bring guests and share in this joyful community tradition.
