Kindergarten

The Kindergarten program at Cape Byron Rudolf Steiner School provides a nurturing and holistic early childhood education experience, deeply aligned with the philosophy of Steiner Education. The program caters to children turning 6 years of age, and is focused on the fundamental importance of play, imagination, and a deep connection to nature.

At the heart of the Kindergarten program is a belief in the value of creative play, enabling children to explore their imaginative forces and develop social and problem-solving skills. The curriculum is carefully designed to encourage a sense of wonder and respect for the natural world, with outdoor play and exploration being a key component.

The teachers in the Kindergarten program are trained to provide a secure and loving environment where each child is known and valued as an individual. With an emphasis on daily rhythms and routines, children develop a sense of security and belonging.
