General Information

Waldorf education is designed to enhance, enrich and support the development phases of childhood

The uniqueness of Waldorf system lies not so much in “what” is taught but in “how and when”.

3 essential phases

R. Steiner referred particularly to 3 essential phases - each of approximately 7 years duration. In each of these phases, different faculties are developing, different growth forces are operating and the child learns in correspondingly different ways.

With a highly structured curriculum we emphasise development of the ‘whole’ child. This is not just their intellectual progression but also their physical, emotional, spiritual and moral expansion. We work on developing the ‘heart, hand and head’. This provides a balanced progress and opportunities for growth in all areas.

A central part of our success stems from our conviction that the best way to spark curiosity, deepen interest and discover the profound joys of learning is achieved by introducing a subject when a child is ready developmentally.
