Steiner
schools provide a unique educational opportunity. In educating students
with a balance of cognitive knowledge, creative feeling and
experiential learning we promote a system of learning that engages all
aspects of their lives.
This
balance is suffused with a feeling for the world of
imagination, wonder and reverence and for the spirit that lives within us
and the world. Our inner lives and external achievements are part of
the interweaving of the physical and spiritual lives that we hold as a
cornerstone of what it is to be truly human.
The
aims of a Steiner
education are to assist young adults to be
confident, to be able to effectively engage in the world, have a
sensitivity in interrelationships and are guided by their heart as much
as their head.

HOLISTIC ,
SUCCESSFUL EDUCATION

confident good students, who
think creative
successful solutions, from kindergarten to year 13. (click bold for

In 2011 Level 3 NCEA
students achieved a 95%
pass rate
– that is 20% higher than
the national decile 8 norm.
Our year
8
students achieved significantly higher literacy and maths than the national
norm.
We do
not
do National Standards
and
yet achieve results that are well above average in both the Primary and Secondary school
Tertiary Education
Commission report
NZ Steiner School graduates complete tertiary
courses 15% higher on average than the
national norms.
This means
that a Steiner graduate completes a WHOLE
PERSON related education and
achieves academically at rates equal to and higher than other
educational approaches.
Come and see
how this is achieved from kindergarten
and through the high school.
We
welcome your
interest.
