More about the South Shore Waldorf School:
In 1996 the South Shore Waldorf School & Kindergarten first opened its doors on an organic family farm in 
Conquerall Mills, NS. Five years later, the school and kindergarten moved to a century old school house in Blockhouse, NS, carefully and lovingly renovated by the families and friends of the School.
The School was founded by a handful of families looking for ‘something more’ for their children. It now offers a parent-tot program, a kindergarten program (ages 3-6), and grades 1 through 7.

The Waldorf curriculum promotes well-rounded development in children by exposing them to a wide variety of subjects using an interdisciplinary approach that complements the students natural abilities. Waldorf education allows for a meaningful learning process by engaging the whole child. The children develop their thinking and feeling, and a sense of purpose.
