Enrolment Process

The Kildare Steiner Waldorf School is an independent, non-denominational and coeducational school, offering a comprehensive Steiner Waldorf education for children aged 3.5 to 16 years.

In addition we also offer a Parent & Child Programme for children from birth up to 3.5 years old.

We run a 4-hour daily session in our Kindergarten, from 9am to 1pm, Monday to Friday with ECCE funding which covers three hours of Kindergarten per day. You may also be refunded by NCS.

Children can join our Kindergarten from age three and a half years onwards once they are fully toilet trained.

Formal learning starts in our primary school for children aged 6 and we educate the whole child, not just the intellect, so our teachers are dedicated to fostering a genuine enthusiasm for learning through different creative means.

Our Secondary School caters for ages 12 to 16 years and offers children the opportunity to continue their studies with us to a higher level up to transition year.
