Sanderling Waldorf School

A Holistic Approach to Education in North County San Diego

Nestled amidst the vibrant landscape of North County San Diego, Sanderling Waldorf School stands as a beacon of educational excellence, nurturing young minds through a holistic approach to learning. Founded on the principles of the Waldorf philosophy, we believe in fostering a lifelong love of learning in each child, nurturing their unique potential and empowering them to become confident, compassionate, and contributing members of society.

Cultivating Curiosity and Creativity

At Sanderling, we deviate from the conventional model of rote learning. Instead, we encourage exploration, discovery, and the pursuit of knowledge through hands-on discovery, rich artistic experiences, and movement-integrated learning. Our curriculum spans the physical, emotional, and intellectual realms, nurturing young minds to become well-rounded individuals.

A Balancing Act: Freedom and Guidance

Our classrooms buzz with a joyful balance between independent exploration and guided instruction. While children are encouraged to pursue their natural curiosities and express themselves freely, our dedicated teachers provide unwavering support and guidance. This harmonious combination fosters a sense of empowerment and self-discovery within each child.

A Journey of Discovery

From the creative play of our Early Childhood program to the rigorous, artistic curriculum of our Grade program, each stage at Sanderling is designed to foster a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom walls. With a focus on languages, music, movement, and the arts, we nurture the whole child - their intellectual capabilities, their physical potential, and their emotional intelligence.
