I went to a Montessori school, and know enough about it because of my job. I personally don't like it because I think it's too stifling for children's creativity. Every activity has a specific purpose and has to be carried out in a certain way, with not a lot of room left for imagination.
If you think about how many people you remember from your pre-school - I've got two good friends that I remember from then - then you'll know how important it is to have them. That said, I didn't take any of those friends to primary school with me. I then didn't take any friends from primary to high school with me and it worked to my advantage as an opportunity to re-invent myself.
So, um, I guess I haven't really helped you, but had to make you feel loved!!!
