Learning to love learning
Cardiff Steiner Early Years Centre is a thriving Steiner Waldorf Kindergarten for 3 to 6 year olds (and a School for 6+ from September 2012). We are co-educational and welcome children of all abilities, faiths and backgrounds. In our caring, homely environment, children develop a love of learning, realise their creativity, grow-in confidence and self-motivation, and gain care and respect for others and the world we live in.
Why Steiner for my child?
creativity and imagination
simple natural materials, free play and gentle guidance, stimulate creative and inquiring minds that stay with our children for a lifetime.
freedom to enjoy childhood
Away from the pressure of targets and tests, children learn through play, exploration and the world around them.
confidence and social skills
Our children develop empathy, co-operation, self motivation and self initiative - all vital building blocks for future learning and life
the natural world and outdoor play
With lots of outdoor play and rich seasonal activities the children develop a love and appreciation of nature
warmth and security
The homely, caring environment, reassuring daily rhythms, small class size and continuity of care, make Kindergarten the perfect first step between home and school.
