You won't find more dedicated pioneering and creative teachers then here! We came after 5 years Waldorf in Denmark and years of Waldorf in Kenya to this hidden gem, and the way teacher Aisha teaches and draws nordic mythology on the black board is amazing! They really look at the individual child and made our three very welcome. This school went through a rough fase before and has now a new dedicated schoolleader, super engaged board and beautifully led parent circle. The parent group all choses and is committed to diversity as you seldom see and experience.

The unique approach to educating the whole child, creating a well rounded individual.

What a hidden gem! My child is thriving and Stellenbosch Waldorf School truly offers an education for life. This is our fifth year at the school and my child loves going to school every single day.
Beautiful campus, amazing teachers and staff, and what remarkable children it produces! The holistic Waldorf methodology is taught beautifully and my child is flourishing academically, emotionally and socially.
How amazing to be able to send your child to the same school all the way from Playgroup to Matric. We couldn’t be happier!

My child loves his class and his teacher. My biggest positive about the school is how they make time to care for each child individually, and grow their self-confidence. The children create their own textbooks in main lessons and the artistic level my child is at the age of 9 is astounding. They really aim to develop the whole child, rather than rushing through the curriculum to achieve pre-conceived outcomes. The setting on the Spier Wine Farm is amazing and the children are surrounded by nature throughout the day. Lots of international visitors and a diverse community. Definitely worth to explore, and see if it is for you!

What a privelege for my child to be at the Stellenbosch Waldorf School. He is absolutely thriving and loves his school! This education system is unique in that it is holistic and develops the whole child. The teachers and community are amazing as are the school grounds tucked away on a beautiful farm.
Parent
The way Waldorf approaches teaching is unique and makes sense. It’s really unfortunate that they don’t take bullying seriously here.
Despite management professing to have strict policies and procedures in place regarding bullying, it seems to all be lip-service. Expect yourself and your child to be victimised in subtle ways should you be vocal about your concerns.
The lack of compassion from them in this situation was astounding.

My child can be herself and the teachers are wonderful with the kids
