Our innovative outdoor classroom curriculum offers educational and vocational programs, in the Steiner tradition of learning. Learning is fostered through engaging students in a range of practical tasks including woodwork, weaving, music, drama, farming, gardening and life skills programs. Our caring and supportive school is the only Steiner based Special school in Australia, offering Education with a Difference.
Warrah Specialist School is a small school set in a rural property and is part of a broader organisation - Warrah. Warrah is a not-for-profit (registered charity), community-based organisation supporting individuals with a disability in a range of services and settings. We remain committed to the Vision of our founding families and to creating and connecting to community life.
Key Roles and Responsibilities:
- Assist in the teaching and supervision of students.
- Provide one-on-one or small group support, including taking a class independently at times.
- Support students with special needs through individualised sessions outside the classroom.
- Ensure compliance to all Warrah Policies and Procedures.
