WELCOME

Milkwood Steiner School is a non-denominational, independent private school offering a primary level education to children from Preschool to Class 6 based upon the educational philosophy of Rudolf Steiner.

The school has recently relocated to newly built premises on Boulter Rd in Berrimah, Darwin.

Australia currently has 60 Steiner Schools and Kindergartens including 11 Government Schools running Steiner streams parallel with their mainstream curriculum. With its emphasis on the timing and style of learning Steiner Education has proved itself a truly international curriculum.  There are currently 995 Steiner Schools and 1400 Kindergartens operating worldwide.  The firm inner foundation that Steiner education provides for its students is seen as more and more valuable in a rapidly changing world.

Steiner education, also referred to as Waldorf education, was originally developed by philosopher, scientist and artist Rudolf Steiner in 1919 and adopts a fully-integrated form of education that uniquely focuses on nurturing all aspects of each child in relation to his or her ‘Head, Heart & Hands’. This holistic approach fosters a lifelong love of learning where children become ‘educated for life’.

Milkwood Steiner School is proud to offer inspiring, creative and quality education following the Steiner philosophy.
