Kildare Steiner Secondary School CLG

Kildare Steiner Secondary School Company Limited By Guarantee is a Steiner Waldorf school dedicated to nurturing children who love to learn. Drawing on Rudolf Steiner's holistic pedagogy, the school tailors its curriculum to each child's individual needs, balancing academic progress with physical, emotional and spiritual development.

The institution offers three distinct stages of education. The Kindergarten (ages 3-6) provides a warm, home-like setting where play-based learning and a steady daily rhythm foster confidence and curiosity. The Primary School (ages 6-12) builds on this foundation, enabling children to reach national standards while continuing to develop creativity, critical thinking and 21st-century skills. A secondary programme for Classes 7-9 (equivalent to 1st-3rd year in mainstream education) is also available, with enrolments opening for the next academic year.

Based in the tranquil, forested surroundings of County Kildare, Kildare Steiner School benefits from close ties to nature, giving pupils regular opportunities to work with wood, clay, garden and woodland environments. Parents are welcomed as partners, contributing to a caring community where children grow in head, heart and hands.
