Steiner Education at Mornington Park Primary School

"Education through the head, heart, and hands." — The core guiding principle of Dr Rudolf Steiner

Mornington Park Primary School is proud to offer a unique dual-stream program, providing families with a choice of distinct educational pathways within a nurturing government school setting. As the only school on the Mornington Peninsula to offer this dual-stream model, we aim to balance rigorous cognitive development with emotional intelligence and practical life skills to cultivate well-rounded, resilient individuals.

Our Philosophy

Developed by Austrian philosopher and scientist Dr Rudolf Steiner, this internationally recognised approach views the child holistically. It goes beyond purely intellectual development to acknowledge the human spirit, integrating academic excellence, artistic expression and practical capabilities.

Through this classic balance of head, heart, and hands, our students develop clarity of thought, a sensitivity of feeling, and a strong willingness to work. Our dedicated Steiner teachers work creatively to generate genuine inner enthusiasm in each child, cultivating a deep respect for themselves, others, and their environment.
