In its 40-year history, Orana Steiner School has developed an enviable reputation for its standards and achievements, and its warm, caring culture. Orana proudly employs applicants from a diverse range of backgrounds.In Primary School, we value individual difference. We believe in self-responsibility and in the values needed to become connected and contributing citizens. We seek to support our students to be capable of personal endeavour and community involvement. The education we provide develops creative and imaginative thinking and aims to instill in our students a love of learning, a sense of wonder, an appreciation of beauty and a connection to the world.The High School teaching program assists students in taking increasing responsibility for their own learning and to develop their own ideals, values and sense of purpose for adult life. The High School encourages students to become independent thinkers; use their own observations, research, and draw conclusions and judgements; form relationships with specialist teachers; address questions and problems in specialist subjects, and to develop a wide range of expertise as well as an active, articulate and well-rounded thinking capacity.The Senior College curriculum is comprehensive and carefully designed to balance a Steiner approach with the contemporary requirements stipulated by the ACT Board of Senior Secondary Studies. This broad, integrated approach to the Senior College curriculum emphasises the development of well-rounded students through equal exposure to Arts and Sciences, together with a range of electives. Orana's tradition of extensive pastoral care for its students continues into the Senior College.
