Education
Steiner Education has been recognised and respected as a highly effective form of education for 100 years and at present, there are around 3,000 Steiner schools, kindergartens, universities and institutes of higher learning established world-wide. Steiner education has taken a foothold in countries as diverse as Russia, Romania, Hungary, Israel, Egypt, India, Brazil, Vietnam, Thailand and the Philippines – a total of some 80 countries around the world.
In Australia alone, there are over 40 schools and Kindergartens with NPSS being one of 14 schools offering a comprehensive Kinder to Class 12 education. Studies conducted around the world confirm Steiner-school graduates to be highly adaptable, confident and productive members of society.
High school

This includes offering significant depth and breadth to the programme that will challenge students in their areas of strength and encourage them to extend themselves into curriculum areas that may also present difficulties for them.

Preschool

Young children learn through imitation, and, with this in mind, the preschool creates a warm and loving homelike environment with rhythmic repetition where children feel secure. Each child can grow, develop, play and socialise through movement and a variety of sense experiences.
