Central Coast Steiner School is an engaged community where teachers, students and their families work together to uphold a vibrant school environment. Rudolf Steiner spoke to the founding parents of the first Waldorf school, with the aim of ‘working in unity’ with them, ‘for the betterment and blessing of your children, and thus for the whole of future humanity…’  We truly value this partnership. We know what a difference it makes to the life of the school. For our families, our school offers the opportunity to form friendships with like-minded families who are committed to the values of  Steiner education.

Parents are encouraged to stay involved in their children’s education and the broader school community throughout their child’s years of schooling. Our Parent Community Network is a great way to connect with other families. Throughout the school year, we offer talks on Steiner education, school festivals and artistic events that promote our unique philosophy.

Our school seeks opportunities to be of service to our local community and beyond. Recently we have contributed to cleaning local waterways. Our Year 9 students have contributed to the biodynamic gardens at Inala Steiner School in Sydney. Our Year 10 students work within Aboriginal communities in the Northern Territory as part of their annual trip. The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme explicitly encourages community service, promoting the development of global citizenship and social responsibility.
