Our Story
June 10, 2012 ‘Tomorrow’s Humanity is about Today’s Child — Following the Footsteps of the Parent’ Dear Colleagues, Friends, and Well-wishers, This is a special communiqué to apprise you of the continuing mission of Bainbridge Montessori in its commitment to serve the child by awakening the parent. A memorable rich history of over four decades—since the school’s founding in 1970 by my beloved mother and educational visionary, Mildred Gunawardena—has very poignantly called my attention to serve a higher purpose in aid of the child. I have chosen to take this direction with a fulfilled, spacious attitude so that I may reach out to a greater circle of ‘parents in kind’—transcending boundaries in space and time. My mother—a pioneer pedagogue in Montessori—prepared me to follow her footsteps with a passion so that I may cause a worthwhile difference in defense of ‘the universal child’. She was a dedicated, silent activist, uninhibited by the ideals of a conventional mindset. She, in unison with her life partner, my dad, stood resolutely—as role-models—to provide the child with inner security, in partnership with ‘the engaging parent’. A sacred human purpose was set for me from the very inception of my life, thus enabling me to grow and transform solely through well-embraced LOVE, in and around the Montessori prepared environments founded by my parents. As I often emphasize, I believe in a better humanity beginning with child, prompted by my solid and lasting Montessori grounding of an entire lifetime. I invite you to support me in my special endeavors to pursue a heartfelt passion—as a peaceful activist on behalf of the child—via consultations, speaking engagements, seminars and books, in particular, authored by me.

Sincerely, Nelunika Gunawardena Rajapakse September 1, 2011 Bainbridge Montessori's continuing mission 'to serve the child' has a pioneering new direction. Beginning September of 2011 Bainbridge Montessori initiated its new direction under its extended title: 'Mildred Gunawardena Center for Parenting'.

These will be open to all interested parents, caregivers, educators, and professionals. The ultimate mission of this center is to raise the position of 'today's child' through the parent. Indeed, our rich experiential history of forty plus years (since 1970) is replete with ample precedents for this new direction.
