There are many women we want to recognise on a day like today, International Women's Day. For those in this space, there is a standout. One of Italy's first female doctors, a revolutionary, Maria Montessori. Maria Montessori we thank you for providing light and hope for children and women in the past, present and future. For those who are interested here is a Timeline of Maria Montessori's Life and Biography. This page has lots of good information too. 

I also want to pay tribute to other strong women educators, leaders and role models in our community including Montessori teachers. I want to recognise the Montessori teachers that teach me, Meghan and Simone. Thank you for the work that you do!
