Education with Heart

We are Gaia

The Gaia Waldorf School is situated in one of the most picturesque parts of Cape Town. With Table Mountain in the background, ample shade giving trees and the Liesbeek River behind the school you have the sense that you in a world made for Waldorf Education. Horses, chickens and a village garden complete this picture of rural beauty right in the middle of a busy city.

Gaia was founded to make Waldorf education accessible to children across the vast economic spectrum and not just within reach of the privileged. As such we draw children from different socio-economic backgrounds. A testament to its diversity is that Gaia was hailed as the most diverse Waldorf School in South Africa (teachers conference 2019).

We offer a Playgroup, Kindergarten, and a Primary School from Class 1 to Class 7.

What Parents Say

It was Baaqir's mother's wish to send him to Gaia Warldorf School. She felt that the school encapsulated the kind of education and environment that he needed. We can say with confidence that this was 100% the right choice. He has grown so much in each of his subjects, as well as in his confidence as an individual. It is a loving and caring environment that allows him to be himself. The appreciation of diversity and the natural environment is a beautiful part of what the school represents. Highly recommended for parents looking for a school that caters holistically to children.

Gaia Waldorf has so many wonderful Teachers who are committed to enriching each and every child’s learning experience. My kids are always happy to go to school and surprisingly always come home with bouts of energy! The Teachers take the time to get to know them well, and what triggers them to excel. This wonderful effort along with the love and respect the kids have for each other, give them an incredible opportunity to be a well rounded happy & confident person. I absolutely love Waldorf!

We love Gaia because our son gets to experience farm life within the City Bowl, in a diverse and inclusive environment, with the most passionate teachers on the planet!

I am really grateful for the education my children are receiving, for the level of care and dedication of our teachers and the fact that children know and interact with each other from Class 1 to class 7.
