History & Future Plans

Sophia Mundi Inner-City Steiner school was founded in 1985 on the initiative of a group of parents seeking a Steiner (or Waldorf) education for their children. In has grown to be a school of 200 students from playgroups for mothers and infants, an associated  kindergarten, and Prep through to Class 12.

The primary school campus is now situated amongst the beautiful and peaceful surroundings of the natural bushland overlooking the Yarra River and the Collingwood Children's Farm in Abbotsford . We are part of the Abbotsford Convent Coalition, a community group which is undertaking the creation of an arts, cultural and education precinct on the site of the former Abbotsford Convent.  It is an exciting prospect for our school to be situated in a precinct with artists, galleries, dance studios, theatres and workshops.

The secondary school will continue to operate at the Nicholson Street site and will relocate to the St Mary's Campus at the Abbotsford Convent site in the future.
