Want Smarter Kids? Teach Music, Not Coding

The latest neuroscience shows that learning a musical instrument increases brainpower
New studies from MIT and the University of Zurich show that when it comes to teaching kids, it’s music, not coding, that actually has long-term transferable developmental, cognitive and academic benefits. Music education is a core part of our curriculum in every grade at the Vancouver Waldorf School.
We have a rolling admissions policy and accept students throughout the year when space is available. We are currently accepting applications. Join an information session or meet individually with our Admissions Coordinator to learn more about the Vancouver Waldorf School.

Choosing a school is a very important 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.
