Welcome to Ringwood Waldorf School!

In our Early Years programme we work with children in the first phase of human development, which is primarily focused on building the physical body and strong healthy senses as a foundation for future learning. It is a time when the child learns best through imitation and play rather than instruction. In the first seven years of life, children are one with their surroundings.

Ash Tree Parent and Child Group provides a warm and homely environment where families with young children, from around six months to four years old, spend time together in a session led by a Parent and Child Group leader. We aim to nurture healthy child development through opportunities for free movement, imaginative child-led play, gentle sensory exploration and secure connections. Our two hour sessions run Monday to Friday during term time, and we would be delighted to welcome you!
