Our Future

 “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined”. Henry David Thoreau
 
The Dunedin Rudolf Steiner School moved to its present site in 2006 and is now at a stage when it needs additional permanent classroom spaces. The first phase of its building extension was to create an extension from the main block  to provide a playgroup/ flexible teaching space, a staff room, toilets for staff and visitors, and the third kindergarten room was extended.

In the initial plans, the next building phase was to build a two classroom block on the top section of the school’s 3.2 hectare site, above the area of native bush. A review of our options then led to a revised plan with two classrooms to be built next on the lower end of the school, before the upper classroom development. These two classrooms will have a retractable accoustic wall between them allowing the space to be opened up for festivals and performances. It will be a more affordable build, which should be funded from the sale of land below the school.

The Extension Project
Thanks to the generous gifts from our community, we have been able to build our kindergarten extension, which includes a classroom space for class one, a staff room, toilets, a kindergarten office and an extension for the new kindergarten room.

What next?

The third phase will then be the completion of the upper classroom block.
