STEINER SCHOOL

Steiner education
reimagined
for the 21st century

Nurturing connected, Earth centred and resilient humans.

Nestled in the heart of the Blue Mountains in Wentworth Falls, Kindlehill School cultivates confident, compassionate, and capable young people—ready to navigate a changing world with resilience and initiative.

Grounded in the principles of Rudolf Steiner, our approach thoughtfully reimagines Steiner education for the twenty-first century. By weaving together community, place-based learning, and the stories of this land, students develop a profound sense of belonging and the imagination and courage to help shape a more conscious and connected world.

We stand on 3 key pillars to form our Steiner education

Connection

Every family belongs. We hold each other with warmth, respect and a shared sense of purpose.

Earth Centredness

Guided by our connection with the land, our country and its history. Learning through nature, season and rhythm.

Resilient Futures

Cultivating whole, courageous individuals who grow into themselves - and give back to the world.

Watch our Kindlehill Student Journey Film...

My child thrives at Kindlehill - he really enjoys coming to school and feels connected to his teacher, his friends and the whole school.

It's been such a rich experience for me as a parent to be able to be so involved with his school life. There is a sense of care, commitment, and relationship at the centre of the school ethos.

Connection: Our Community

Families are at the heart of Kindlehill. Parent participation warms and enriches school life: in classrooms, at fairs and festivals, through working bees and craft groups.

Many of our classroom furnishings were handcrafted by parents using beautiful recycled timbers. Our community contributes skills, creativity and care through maintaining the grounds, supporting events, or producing handmade items to raise funds for the school.

Kindlehill Steiner School parents and carers are an integral part of the functioning of the school.

We offer many opportunities for parent and carer involvement including attending primary school excursions and camps, cooking meals, making costumes for plays, organising events and participating at the events.

By becoming part of the school, by being visible and active in your child's school life, this fosters a sense of integration and seamlessness between home and school life enabling children to see the symbiosis in values of parents, carers and educators supporting each other in raising the next generation. 

At Kindlehill, education is a shared endeavour.
