Welcome to West Coast Steiner School, Nollamara. We are an independent primary school in the northern suburbs of Perth and ten minutes from the Indian Ocean. We offer education from Playgroup to Class 6.
Working from the indications of Rudolf Steiner, we strive to educate the whole being of each child in head, heart, and hands. We envision this holistic education set within a community guided by goodness, beauty, and truth. Further, we seek to plant the seeds for our students to enter the changing world with purpose, as self-directed adults, with a lifelong love of learning, who are intellectually and spiritually free, socially responsible, and emotionally balanced.
Our vision highlights our purpose to provide a meaningful education that engages your child’s “head, heart and hands” within a strong, vibrant school community:
West Coast Steiner School is committed to being a Child Safe Organisation, taking a preventative and participatory stance on child protection issues and promoting a child safe environment. At West Coast Steiner School, we believe that the Steiner educational philosophyis powerful in guiding children towards finding their authentic voice, developing their moral capacities and nurturing their individual potential. We are committed to educating children and parents alike, so that together we can build the next generation of balanced, creative and socially responsible adults, equipped with purpose and meaning in their lives.
Just over two decades ago, the West Coast Steiner School was established by a group of parents with a shared belief in the Steiner philosophy and in the importance of a holistic education for their children. We are celebrating more than 20 years of independent schooling, and now provide a complete and authentic Steiner educational experience to children from Playgroup through to Class 6.
Assisting our students to establish for themselves “a life of learning” is a philosophy that represents our purpose as a school, the promise to our students, and the desire of their parents. Our curriculum is holistic, formative, and relevant, whilst also being practical and ‘life’ based. Its impact isn’t isolated to the short segment of life that students spend at our school.
In fact, we believe that its value is much greater than that. We strive to give our students the skills, knowledge and awareness to thrive as free thinking, socially committed adults who will aspire to become the truest possible version of themselves.

I have loved our time at West Coast Steiner. It's a beautiful environment and a highly enriched learning environment that is structured differently to the mainstream curriculum. We had an excellent teacher who took our child all the way through to year 6. She developed strong and secure friendships, was challenged to think deeply and her musical skills have been nurtured (and challenged!). It's different approach felt a little bit confronting at first, but it has been an incredible primary school journey. I'm so grateful we made this choice.
