What I love about attending Sophia Mundi Steiner School

One of the things I really love about my school is that you stay with the same teacher and class every year. It gives you time to get to know people, even if they’re really different from you. You learn how to understand others and work together, which I think is an important skill. You also get to know your teacher more – and they know you, so they know when to help you and when to let you figure things out on your own, which helps you grow and improve.

I really like main lessons – that you have one focus area for a long period of time so that you can learn more, more deeply - instead of jumping between different subjects. You get to finish something after working on it consistently, and understand it better.

I love that we do craft and music - it challenges you and makes you look at things differently – and helps your brain work in different ways.

 I love learning the cello. It has really opened up my mind and given me lots of exciting challenges. Music opens up endless possibilities.

And I really like that we don’t use screens at school. It means we’re not distracted by videos or games, and we have to use our imagination. When you’re working with paper and pencils, you’re more focused, and your ideas come from you – not a screen.
