Waldorf Homeschooling Group Castlemaine

The Waldorf Homeschooling Group Castlemaine uses Waldorf education principles to educate both children and parents.

Members of the group support each other to provide great education opportunities at home and when they gather together.

The group has a strong commitment to the Steiner Philosphy and as such encourages ongoing adult education. Members use a Waldorf curriculum or free schooling with a Waldoft perspective and seek to become fully aware of themselves as educators.

The group gathers each season in a different natural environment. The environment is chosen according to the season and organisers seek to reflect the elements it expresses. Seasonal festivals, seasonal crafts and stories, morning circles and free creative play are also available.
