Carrie - my sister's kids go to Steiner school in Queensland. Lucy is five so she is starting off in that environment and hasn't known any other. My nephew is 14 and has had a variety of schooling experiences ... state school till Year 7, then one year at Anglican Church Grammar School. He much prefers Steiner. He's artistic and creative so the style of learning suits him. He seems much happier there too ... it's a smaller, more intimate learning environment and I think that is pretty important for most kids.

Cheers,

Mel
