Tir na Nog

Tír na nÓg Montessori Preschool is a long‑established early years setting located in the tranquil, woodland surroundings of Boycetown House, Kilcock, Co Kildare. The centre benefits from a unique natural environment that provides children with ample outdoor space to explore, play and develop a connection with nature while being safely supervised. The premises are designed to support a Montessori approach, encouraging self‑directed learning and fostering independence from an early age. The programme at Tír na nÓg focuses on nurturing children’s curiosity and helping them make sense of the world around them. Emphasis is placed on positive attitudes to life and living, with particular attention to early literacy development. Children are supported through a blend of hands‑on activities, guided discovery and structured learning experiences that align with Montessori principles, promoting confidence, social skills and a love of learning.
