Kildare Steiner Secondary School: Something new and different in Secondary Education!
We are delighted to announce the commencement of first year of Kildare Steiner Secondary School on the grounds of Kildare Steiner School on September the 3rd 2019 led by a very experienced Steiner teacher Nikki Ellis who previously worked in Acorn Steiner School in England.
In June we hosted our first “Experience Day”, led by Nikki Ellis. The children taking part were from our existing school and mainstream schools. We plan to hold more such days in the future to enable students not familiar with our ethos to see how subjects can come to life!
