Welcome to Calgary Waldorf School
Central to Waldorf education is a deep respect for childhood. Our enriched curriculum is designed to meet the child’s specific developmental needs. Movement and time in nature is built into every student’s daily rhythm. The Waldorf learning experience is hands-on, with unwired and low-tech classrooms. The arts — music, story, drawing, painting, and drama — are interwoven through all subjects.

When autumn mist gathers
when leaves fall gently down.
New strength in me rises
to bear life’s waiting crown.

Alongside the many tales of great explorers of the past, Class Seven students researched a famous explorer of their choice. They used that research to create a board game dictating the adventures of their explorer. Through the many hazards, penalties, rewards, and accomplishments in the board game, their classmates could then learn about this new explorer. #calgarywaldorfschool #waldorfschool #waldorfeducation

EDUCATION
Waldorf® Education addresses the learning needs of the whole child, developing: clarity in thought, balance in feeling and conscience and initiative in action.
The Waldorf approach recognizes that children have distinct, age-related educational and emotional needs that unfold through stages of their development.
BALANCED
To meet these needs, the Calgary Waldorf School’s rich and challenging curriculum carefully balances academic, artistic and practical activities to stimulate intelligence and encourage creativity.
NURTURING
Our nurturing social environment helps children develop exceptional interpersonal skills, self-confidence and self-reliance, fostering their own personal integrity and sense of social and environmental responsibility.
INTEGRATED
The Calgary Waldorf School is an independent private school founded in 1985. It offers Parent and Tot programs, Preschool and Kindergarten and Grades One through Nine.
Have a look around our website to explore the unique world of Waldorf Education and discover the advantages it can bring for the growth and development of your child.
