The nature walk is one of the favourite periods of the week for Grades 1 and 2, and they truly look forward to it. A quiet walk out of the gate to enjoy nature and observe little creatures without disturbing them is one of the best parts of the experience. Of course, watching them climb trees and make up their own little games is beautiful to witness.

Gardening in Grade 3 is a brand-new experience for the children. They are so enthusiastic about the whole process, from ploughing the patch to growing vegetables. Each team patiently waits for their turn to plough. They also tried loosening the soil using sticks and stones, just as they had heard about in one of the stories in class.

A Day of Words, Wit, and Wonder : It was an invigorating three hours for the students of Grades 6 and 7 today as they immersed themselves in the world of Scrabble. For some, it was their very first encounter with the game, while others had the opportunity to sharpen the skills they had been building at home. Siddharth, a professional Scrabble player, kept the students engaged throughout the workshop. He challenged them with puzzles, introduced them to game strategies, and enc

With mindful movement, steady breath, and quiet awareness, we celebrated International Yoga Day. Nurturing body, mind, and spirit, one breath at a time.

Knitting needle making workshop for parents!!! Learning with Heart and Hands One of the beautiful traditions in Waldorf education is that the knitting needles used by Grade 1 children are lovingly made by their own parents. Before little hands begin to knit, parents gather in a workshop to carve, sand, shape, and polish a simple pair of wooden needles with care and intention. More than a craft activity, this workshop is a meaningful rite of preparation. As each needle is shap

The Living Rhythm of the Kindergarten In my first year of teaching at BSS, I found myself stepping into the quiet wonderland of kindergarten. In my previous workplace, much of my work centered on guiding older children toward their board examinations, but the kindergarten offered me a place of calm and steady ground. Here, the day unfolded in a gentle rhythm, lovingly woven with moments of breathing in and breathing out. Within this living flow of activity and rest, song and

Stepping into the Grades: The Beauty of the Rose Ceremony May every step be gently blessed, With love and wonder manifest. Like roses opening to the day, May joy and courage light the way. Through caring hands and hearts made bright, May children walk toward the light. Over the years, I have had the privilege of witnessing the Rose Ceremony at Bangalore Steiner School four times. Yet, each year, this tradition touches my heart anew and reveals fresh layers of meaning. There i

Every year at Bangalore Steiner School, we gather as a community to celebrate one of the most cherished milestones in a child’s educational journey—the Rose Ceremony. This beautiful tradition marks the transition from Kindergarten to Grade 1 and welcomes our youngest grade school children into a new phase of learning, growth, and responsibility. On a bright and joyful morning, the Grade 1 children arrived at school accompanied by their parents, filled with anticipation and wo

Every new academic year, our teachers draw lovely drawings on their classroom blackboards themselves to welcome back the children to the class in the year start. These drawings are not just lovely depictions but also give a glimpse to children on the main topic/ learning focus in the year ahead. Have a look at the lovely drawings for this year (2026 academic year start).

The motley crew of G10 Students joined me on a math journey for a couple of afternoons after they had completed their GCSE exams for some fun practical learning. I wanted to show how the theoretical knowledge they had gained during the year for the academic papers could actually be applied in real life. To that end, they built their own home made inclinometers (clinometer) which measures base angle, measured base distances and using the information were then able to calculate

We recently celebrated our Grade 8 children completing their Grade school (1-8) as they will be getting into High school (9+) next and it is a big milestone. It was a fantastic, enjoyable, and emotional event with children of Grade 8, all their parents and all their teachers. Bangalore Steiner School has had several batches of children going through Grade 8 graduation earlier. This group is special because they are the first group to have had One “Class Teacher” for all the 8

Christmas Warmth at the Bangalore Steiner School (Described by one of our parents) Christmas celebrations at the Bangalore Steiner School began with a band of angels in harmony, singing Christmas songs from around the world. Coloured banners and streamers flapped in the breeze and framed the setting on this cool yet sunny day. Parents and friends sat around the stage, watching the children on stage as each class performed a song, whisking them away to a magical place. The a

Our BSS community came together for a special project led by our head of administration and Ammas for this year’s Christmas bazaar — a handmade quilt created with love, teamwork, and creativity. After a discussion with our Handwork teacher, materials were gathered and the Ammas learned the art of quilt-making, working on it during their free time. With a parent’s help, the beautiful quilt is now complete and was available at the bazaar for purchase. A short note was accompany

Through the eyes of one of our students: The first week of December, more commonly known as “Sports week” in Bangalore Steiner School is a truly awaited event of the year, filled with passion, strength and hope. This journey began at the beginning of this academic year, as the participants gathered and the teams were selected, along with their respective captains. The four teams, Vayu, Jala, Agni, and Prithvi, each symbolising an element that helps us connect within ourselves

Recently, at the Bangalore Steiner School, a group of enthusiastic learners got together to experience the fine art of Raku from master craftsman, Bernard Graves. “As you shape the clay, the clay shapes you,” Bernard told the participants gathered, “the process of creating ceramics is a metamorphosis.” Indeed, over the course of the four days, the crafters experienced a transformation of the clay, and within. The Metamorphosis Larva : Crafters used their hands to work the cla

A Framework for Life: How BSS Shaped the Person I Am Today Hi, as I begin this reflection, stepping back into the BSS community, even virtually, brings a flood of fond memories. It will soon be a decade since I graduated in 2016, and I’m genuinely excited to share how my time at BSS truly shaped not just my career path, but the person I am today. BSS was, in my opinion, the place that helped me break out of my shell. Coming from a mainstream school environment, it was a night
