The faculty work out of an understanding of the developmental stages of the children in their care. This creates a learning environment in which the children are totally engaged and learning happens easily.
Mulberry School began as a Waldorf Initiative playgroup in 1993. In 1995 we were incorporated as a not-for-profit charitable organization, and in 1996 we moved to the former Glenburnie West School. Due to poor structural conditions, we arranged to lease the former St. John’s Catholic School in 1999. Over a period of 7 years, we grew and stabilized our pedagogical and administrative foundations. Being downtown also provided us the ability to both expand enrolment as well as be part of a lively and culturally supportive neighbourhood. The lead class graduated in 2008 and in the same year, the school attained Developing School Status within AWSNA. Our search for a permanent home spanned almost five years. In 2009, the school eventually negotiated the purchase of our present school building. Our present goals include expanding the Early Childhood Program to feed our Grade School which will secure the financial stability of Mulberry Waldorf School into the future.
