Welcome to our School
Experience the Brilliance of Waldorf Education
Located in the tranquil countryside of Ballytobin, near Callan, we at the Kilkenny Steiner School, follow the Waldorf pedagogy which meets the children’s needs at each stage of their development. We are a dedicated team of teachers who love and appreciate our students. We believe that each child is unique and has his or her own special gifts and abilities.
Cherish and Cultivate Your Child’s Potential
Our teaching embraces a head, heart, and hands approach to learning, where children learn to think critically, act with kindness and create skillfully with their hands. Our students work with care and take pride in their work. We are a social education, instilling the values of compassion and resilience. We are community-minded, consciously caring for one another and the natural world.
Enrol Your Child in our Unique Educational Haven
