Boa Ventura is a very small Montessori nursery in a detached house with a garden in São Pedro do Estoril. It takes children aged 2 to 6, full or part time. The school says it has been officially recognised by the Ministry of Education and the local council since 1995.
It is an English-speaking school, and it says it welcomes “children of all nationalities”. Children who don’t speak English get help to learn it. There are two small groups, each with its own class teacher and an assistant, and the school says there are no more than six children per qualified teacher.
The website is short. It gives no fees, opening hours or admissions process. The school invites families to “Come and Visit”; contact it through the details on its website.
