Academics

Curriculum
The Straits Waldorf School follows the internationally recognized Waldorf curriculum developed by Rudolf Steiner, emphasizing three stages of child development: willing (doing), feeling, and thinking.

In Grade 1, students engage with fairy tales and nature stories to support emerging academic skills. As they progress to Grade 2, the focus shifts to more complex phonics, word recognition, and math skills. Grade 3 emphasizes developing a sense of self, with language arts aimed at accuracy and fluency. In Grade 4, students enhance their writing and grammar skills, learn fractions and long division, and study local geography and zoology. Grade 5 introduces research tools, expository writing, fractions, decimals, and geometric principles. The curriculum continues to build on these foundations through to Grade 8.
