Fossil Bay School & Kindergarten - Oneroa
About Fossil Bay School & Kindergarten
We believe in order for a child to develop into a resilient and rounded individual all aspects of the child need to be developed in a gentle and non-competitive way. We teach in small classes, ensuring the needs of each individual student can be met.
We believe children do best in the early years withouttechnology and that children thrive when given lots of opportunities to experience movement, arts, creativity and the natural world around them. The skills of creative thinking, collaboration and problem-solving are given more importance than memorising information.
We also believe that the future generations will look better after our planet if they spend a lot of time in nature. That is why our beautiful outdoors become our classroom for the day every Friday on top of daily outdoor activities.
Overwhelming evidence shows the shift in what the workforce needs is already underway. Yet, in most schools you visit today, you see teachers teaching the exact same subject matter as they taught in 1918: English, math, science and history. Back in the days the students were being prepared to be servants to the industrialisation, where a few managers were required along with many workers. The kids performing well academically in science and maths were labeled clever and almost guaranteed a successful career. We don’t rank the importance of arts lower than maths. We believe each child is a genius and that it is our job to bring that out in each one of them. Our children are nourished to help find their individuality, inner source of creativity and strength.
Although the Steiner curriculum is 100 years old, we believe it is a curriculum of the future, not just of the past, simply because it focuses on exactly bringing our the genius in every child. The curriculum grows with the developing child, skilfully meeting the celebrations and challenges of each age.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Such a heart-centred, beautiful place where our two boys have flourished, firstly in the kindergarten and now the school. Other parents and I have often commented how we'd love to go back to school if we could go here!
