Students’ unique journeys are nurtured

The Steiner Difference

Michael Park School provides contemporary Steiner education which reflects the unique context of Aotearoa, New Zealand and includes the New Zealand Curriculum.

As you would expect to find in a Steiner school, our approach to education arises from a picture of the child as an individual of body, soul and spirit in a gradual and purposeful process of growth and development. As educators, we aim to facilitate the removal of barriers to learning and support the individual to realise their inner potential and aspirations. This is reflected in our learning programmes from kindergarten to senior high school.

We see education as being for life, not just about qualifications; although the high levels of student achievement in our senior high school evidence the value we place on academic certainty. A broad and well-rounded programme develops the capacity in our graduates to be creative, self-aware, self-motivated individuals who find purpose and meaning in whatever it is they set themselves to do.

We recognise teaching and learning as a fundamentally human experience and believe that real engagement comes from great teachers. We invest heavily in their personal and professional development and take an ongoing interest in research and best practice within New Zealand and internationally.

Extensive Learning Opportunities
Holistic Education
Outdoor Classrooms

At the core of our Steiner pedagogy is our task as educators to receive the student with reverence, warmth and acceptance:

Kia rangatira ai te tamaiti

Tohua ki te aroha

Tukuna tōna mana, kia rere

In order to revere the child

We must guide with love

And allow the child’s own authority to flow

He Pātai?

We welcome questions from parents seeking to better understand our philosophy and the approach that Rudolph Steiner developed for learning.

“At Michael Park School we create the space where your child will form purposeful and lifelong relationships, and where inspiration is fostered to enable them to be the best that they can be.”
