First encounter with the Waldorf Education and it has impressed me with the comfy environment, with a big garden, and friendly teachers and assistants.
It was an open day and I have chosen to take part in the parent & child group (for 6 months - 2 years old) as my baby girl is approx 11 months old. There was also another nursery group (for 2-3 years old).
We were settled in a 'classroom' but it's more like a living room with natural sunlight, carpet, teepee, low shelves with wooden toys etc. Parents were briefed on how a class is usually being run, what to expect, and what not to expect.
Then they've arranged a bread making session to let the babies play with the dough for awhile. We then experienced the singing session, and we were separated in two smaller groups to have a tour of the school.
Lastly we gathered at the classroom again for a story telling session which actually was a puppet singing session - the singing was so nerve calming.
Overall I love the school and have learnt the basics of the Waldorf Education. The staff there are very friendly and accommodating.

Tips
I only want to point out that the school property is separated into two parts with the babies group having to take the lift to reach the 'main campus' with the garden, though very likely they'd be accompanied by the parents.
