Taraleigh Steiner Pre-School was formerly the Carnegie Rudolf
Steiner Pre School, which operated in Tara Grove Carnegie for 20 years (1987 -
2007).
In 2007, we moved to a beautiful new premises on the edge of
East Bentleigh Primary School (which runs a dual curriculum of Steiner and mainstream classes).
We currently run younger group classes on Monday and Tuesday mornings and
older group classes on Thursday and Friday. We also have a playgroup on Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday mornings next door at Moorleigh Community Village.
Our program is based on the theories and teachings of Rudolf Steiner. The Steiner philosophy on
kindergarten education aims to ensure each child is Physically, emotionally, and spiritually
nurtured. The Taraleigh Steiner preschool program and the
environment promote your child's natural development through play and exploration. The kindergarten
is the bridge between home and school where your child develops skills and understandings of
the world around them through a combination of home like activities including cooking and gardening
and formal activities such as painting and drawing. The Taraleigh environment aims to nurture the
children's senses but not overwhelm them.
Taraleigh Steiner pre-school provides children with an interesting natural environment filled with
open ended play materials so that your child has unlimited opportunities for learning.
