FARRAN MONTESSORI SCHOOL LIMITED

Farran Montessori School Limited is a dedicated early‑years Montessori centre offering a child‑centred education for children aged three to five. Based in the tranquil village of Farran, Co. Cork – just four miles west of Ballincollig and off the N22 – the school provides a purpose‑built environment where each child is respected as an individual learner.

The school operates two spacious 80 m² classrooms, a generous outdoor play area and a children’s garden that overlooks the scenic Bride Valley. Under the leadership of Breffni Hyde, who brings three decades of teaching experience, a team of five qualified Montessori teachers – Breffni Hyde, Carol Lucey, Claire Lucey, Sarah Kavanagh and Caitriona O’Donoghue – delivers daily experiences that combine responsible freedom with an ordered setting, fostering natural curiosity and independence.

Farran Montessori runs a morning session from 9:00 am to 12:30 pm and an afternoon session from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm, giving families flexible options while maintaining the high standards of the Montessori method.
