Cape Byron Rudolf Steiner School

Cape Byron Rudolf Steiner School is an independent, co-educational, non-sectarian school providing education from Kindergarten through to Year 12. The school is a fully accredited and registered educational institution and is a proud member of  Steiner Education Australia (SEA). We offer a high quality education which is based on the indications given by Rudolf Steiner and which meets the requirements of the NSW Board of Studies, Teaching and Education Standards.

Our School is located approximately six kilometers west of picturesque Byron Bay, nestled beneath the St Helena escarpment and on the edge of wetlands and pockets of original and regenerated bushland. Our students are drawn from across the Northern Rivers region of NSW.

Children in this period live strongly in a world of pictures – pictures which are presented to them and pictures which they form themselves. In this phase, if supported to do so, children naturally think poetically, in imagery – their thinking is a “feeling” thinking rather than the later analytical abstract thinking. They are capable of inspired insights. If they are allowed the time and the space to live into the pictures and experiences presented to them, they will carry with them into adult life, vivid and strong powers of imagination.

Our new Innovation Centre has transformed our School, the High School is reveling in the much needed additional space, and the students are loving the state-of-the-art facilities we now have available for their use.
