What is a Waldorf Education?
Created over a century ago by Rudolf Steiner, the Waldorf curriculum integrates the arts, academics, hands-on learning, and a connection to the natural world. By catering to each child's developmental stages, students develop into free-thinking, socially responsible individuals who are ready to meet life's challenges.

waldorfnolaGratitude Gathering
WSNO Grades students took a moment for a Gratitude Gathering and a special holiday feast.
During the gratitude gathering students were arranged in concentric circles with grade 1 in the middle and grade 8 making up the outermost ring. During the gathering, we heard heartfelt reflections from our oldest to our youngest grades’ students, as each class shared what they are thankful for. This special observance was a way to bring gratitude and community into our students’ hearts in a tangible and memorable way.
Wishing our family and friends a harvest of blessings, good health and good times.

waldorfnolaWhat Holiday Feast is complete without pumpkin pie? 🍂🎉 The Magnolia Kindergarten made the most delicious mini pumpkin pies for their snack this week—just in time for Thanksgiving break! 🧡 Measuring, mixing, counting, filling to baking, our little chefs put so much love into their creations, plus flexed their motor skills. The results were as sweet as can be!
Wishing everyone a cozy, pie-filled holiday! 🦃🍁

waldorfnolaOur 3rd Grade students continued their farm block with an inspiring visit to Grow Dat Youth Farm! Located on a beautiful seven-acre site in City Park, Grow Dat operates a two-and-a-half acre sustainable farm, providing hands-on learning about sustainable agriculture, community, and stewardship of the land.
Our students explored the farm, learned about growing fresh, healthy food, and gained a deeper understanding of the work and care it takes to cultivate a thriving farm. Experiences like these bring their farm studies to life, fostering a connection to the Earth and an appreciation for the food we eat.
Thank you, @growdatyouthfarm, for hosting us and sharing your passion for sustainable farming! 🥕🍅🌽
