Theatre helps children develop a range of beneficial skills, such as quick-thinking and problem solving, how to overcome anxiety and build self-confidence. It also strengthens empathy by asking the student to enter into what their character is feeling and experiencing. Putting on a play requires students to work as a team. That’s why in Waldorf Education, every student is involved in putting on a class play every year. We see the wide-ranging positive impacts on our students and the powerful boost to their self-confidence that theatre provides.
We are currently accepting applications. We have a rolling admissions policy and accept students throughout the year when space is available. Join an information session or meet individually with our Admissions Coordinator to learn more about the Vancouver Waldorf School.
Choosing a school is a significant decision in a family’s life. Our admissions process is designed to give you as much information as you need to make an informed decision about enrolling your children. Whenever possible, we encourage all families to book a visit when considering the Vancouver Waldorf School. We want to meet you! It is just as important for us to know who you are and what you are looking for in a school as it is for you to know who we are and what Waldorf education is about.
