Waldorf Academy is unique among your educational choices in Toronto

Waldorf Academy has been educating young hearts and minds from Childcare to Grade 8 in the Casa Loma neighborhood for decades.

We offer a learning environment that is stimulating, nurturing, and creative. Our proven alternative education model prepares children for the challenges and opportunities ahead. Our Kindergarten, Lower School and Middle School programs are focused on each stage of a child’s development in these important years. Our Childcare Centre is comfortable and home-like, providing a safe and happy learning environment for young children.

We are a Waldorf school, which means we are part of the fastest growing independent school movement, with nearly 2,000 Waldorf schools around the world that deliver the renowned and time-tested Waldorf education model.
