"Receive the child in reverence, educate the child with love, let the child go forth in freedom." ~ Rudolf Steiner
The Waldorf Independent School of Edmonton
At the Waldorf Independent School of Edmonton, we strive to educate the Whole child; Head, Heart and Hands. Our Early Childhood programs nurture the wonder-filled imaginative world of young children, building a strong base for future learning and development. In the grades, Teachers ideally stay with their classes, moving with the children up through grades 1-8. Art, movement and culture are infused into all academic study. Nature and natural materials are integrated into the learning experience. Our goal is to explore the child's full potential, while nurturing their self-esteem by encouraging the development of a whole range of additional skills. In this way, a lifelong love of learning is cultivated by nourishing the spirit of curiosity.
The school is located at 7211 96A ave. NW Map.
