“I will never forget the camps and excursions from my time at Blue Mountains Steiner School. Not only were they heaps of fun, but they gave me the skills to travel all over the world and try new things. They have helped me to get so much more out of my life and to really appreciate wild places!”

“I just loved the camps and excursions. These were times when the whole class came together, hung out together and supported each other. I also loved that the camps completely supported the main lesson subjects. It was so much better to learn from the life and experiences around us rather than always in the classroom.”
