Waldorf School
Constantia has a profound respect for the
individuality of every child. Our Curriculum and
teaching approach fosters the children’s healthy
development, stimulating their enthusiasm for learning
and challenges the adolescent’s emerging faculties of
critical judgment.
Waldorf School Constantia with its spacious grounds, is
nestled securely amongst rolling hills, with a
magnificent view of the east side of our famous Table
Mountain. It is within easy reach of Cape Town’s city
centre and its southern suburbs.
The
school supports and encourages the vital role that
parents play in the education of their children, and
seeks to work closely with them. Parents are encouraged
to give active support to the quality of the education
by helping their children enjoy imaginative and healthy
activities at home, rather than watching television and
playing computer games.
What qualities will our children require- not merely to
cope, but to flourish, in a rapidly changing world?
We
believe they will need to be self-reliant, innovative,
imaginative, flexible, questioning, socially responsible
and compassionate. They will need to be articulate and
able to communicate, both by listening to others and by
finding the right way to speak their minds.
We
offer a learning environment, which safeguards the
wholesome unfolding of childhood into adulthood. It
unites intellect, heart and will to provide the insight
and develop the empathy and capacities needed for a
peaceful, sustainable future.
At
Waldorf School Constantia we aim to make all the lessons
a preparation for life-long learning, tertiary education
and the work place. The Western Cape Education
department has affirmed the school’s exceptional track
record of high achievements. Full matriculation passes
and many distinctions have been sustained since the
early 1990’s.
Like

social and cultural backgrounds, with differing gifts
