About Waldorf school
Waldorf education is based on the anthroposophy of Rudolf Steiner. The curriculum follows the developmental phases of the child. Artistic subjects, craftsmanship, and imagination play a large role. There are no grades in the early years and there is a strong emphasis on inner motivation and social awareness.
