A Holistic Approach to Education That Nurtures the Head, Heart, and Hands.

We maintain small class sizes and a strong teacher-student ratio, ensuring personalized support for each child. Our dedicated teachers create a balanced, dynamic, and inspiring learning environment.

Students from preschool to grade 8 spend time daily playing, learning, and exploring outdoors. The weekly Forest School Enrichment Day further deepens this connection, providing a dedicated nature immersion experience and emphasizing the importance of building a meaningful relationship with the natural world.

The French learning program at Rowan Tree Children’s School follows the Ontario curriculum, using the Common European Framework and Waldorf-inspired practices. Starting in grade 1, students engage in real-world communication through storytelling, songs, and games. By grade 8, they will have completed the required hours of French instruction, developing practical language skills and cultural understanding to use French in everyday situations.

Students engage in music through singing, rhythmic movement, and playing simple instruments, while handwork classes introduce skills such as knitting, sewing, and woodworking. These activities not only enhance fine motor skills but also encourage patience, mindfulness, and a sense of accomplishment, supporting the development of the whole child in a holistic, Waldorf-inspired environment.
