The Newburyport Montessori School Parent Association is excited to host the first-ever Golf Tournament and Family BBQ on Monday, June 1st at Renaissance Golf Club in Haverhill, MA. This special community event will bring together families, friends, and local businesses for a day of fun, connection, and meaningful impact.

We’ll kick off the day with a round of golf, followed by an evening Family BBQ celebration complete with bounce houses, raffles, and more. It’s a wonderful way to wrap up the school year while raising funds to directly benefit the students of Newburyport Montessori School.

All proceeds from this event will support the update and revitalization of the community activity rooms at NMS. These spaces are central to daily school life. They are where children gather for before-care, participate in enrichment programs such as music and Spanish, enjoy indoor playtime, and where staff gather for workshops and special activities. Visiting enrichment programs also rely on these rooms, making them a true hub for creativity, connection, and growth.

Designed to support play-based learning, the updates will include new play resources, child-centered furniture, improved organizational storage for arts and crafts, thematic learning materials, and vestibular input resources that support movement, regulation, and sensory development. These enhancements will create an environment that is both inspiring and functional, encouraging imagination, collaboration, and joyful learning.

With a school community of nearly 200 families in the Seacoast area, this project is an investment in the shared spaces that bring our children together every day- a second home. Your participation and support help strengthen our school community and ensure these important gathering spaces continue to nurture meaningful, hands-on learning for years to come.
