School Tours
School Tours, or Open Days, are an opportunity for prospective students and their families to explore the school grounds, visit classrooms to observe student work, and engage with our teachers.
Visitors may also have the chance to interact with our farm animals! Additionally, we offer a presentation that outlines Steiner education at our school and discusses the benefits that it offers to our students and the broader community.
If you are ready to express an interest in our school and attend our next Open Day, we invite you to complete the Expression of Interest form. This will ensure that your EOI is registered, and initiate an invitation for you to attend an Open Day. If there are places available in a class, you may receive an additional invitation to meet with the class teacher/guardian.
Newcastle Waldorf School hosts an Open Day on the third Saturday of each school term. In 2025, the dates are:
- 22nd February 2025
