The Central Coast Steiner School offers a three-day program which gently introduces the child to a calm, unhurried approach to learning.
The program gives generous opportunities for free imaginative play, and our beautiful, home-like environment is a place where each individual is lovingly nurtured.
At this stage what the child learns at the Central Coast Steiner School, is mainly imparted through example and the day is about doing everyday tasks together- such as baking the bread for morning tea.
Artistic activities, such as painting, drawing, craft, puppetry and storytelling foster the child’s imagination. A deep love of Mother Nature is awakened as the changing seasons are observed and celebrated. |

Building strong foundations for literacy, we develop a genuine love of language through verse, song, rhythms, rhymes and stories. The child experiences a rich variety of oral language experiences.
The arts and craft activities- such as beeswax modelling, finger knitting, weaving, sewing and painting that are offered at the Central Coast Steiner School- develop dexterity and an appreciation of beauty and craftsmanship. |

As we set sail on a new educational voyage, a warm and enthusiastic welcome awaits our Year 11 and Year 12 students at Central Coast Steiner School, heralding the introduction of the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme from 2025. Our vision for this journey is to nurture students who not only acquire profound breadth and depth of knowledge, but also thrive holistically—physically, intellectually, emotionally, and ethically.
What is the IB Diploma?
The Diploma Programme (DP) is composed of six diverse subject groups, complemented by the DP core, encompassing theory of knowledge (TOK), creativity, activity, service (CAS), and the extended essay. Within the core of the DP, students embark on a voyage of self-discovery, contemplating the essence of knowledge, pursuing independent research, and contributing to projects often intertwined with community service.
What subjects will Central Coast Steiner School offer?
Our curriculum offerings span the spectrum of the six IB Diploma groups:
• English Language and Literature (Group 1),
• Spanish (Beginners) (Group 2),
• Psychology and/or Business Management (Group 3),
• Environmental Systems and Societies (Group 4),
• Mathematics (Group 5), and
• Film Studies (Group 6).
To cater to individual interests, students have the option to delve into an additional individuals and societies subject (Group 3) or study an additional language (Group 2) instead of Film Studies.
The introduction of the IB Diploma marks an exhilarating moment in the journey of Central Coast Steiner School, filled with promise and potential.
