Milkwood Steiner School, Darwin, NT

The need for imagination, a sense of truth and a feeling of responsibility - these are the three forces which are the very nerve of education.

                 

~ Rudolf Steiner

 

Welcome to the home page of the Milkwood Steiner School.

This page is temporary, please check back soon for our new website.

Milkwood Steiner school opened in Feb 2004 in the converted Nightcliff Scout Hall in Nightcliff, Darwin. Due to increased enrolment, we have moved to Marrara.

It has arisen out of a vibrant, enthusiastic community of committed families who want Steiner education for their children.

The reverence and respect felt by Steiner teachers for the special qualities of each stage of childhood shapes the school environment, the way the children are spoken to, the materials used, the activities undertaken and the approach to learning at each developmental stage. Teachers are dedicated to creating a genuine love of learning within each child. By freely using art, craft, music and language in conjunction with the teaching of academics, learning becomes a living, creative process. The academic subjects are enriched and enlivened in a way the meets the developmental stages of the children, offering both sensory and intellectual nourishment.
