* Freedom to Learn Through Creative Play * 


​Seedlings Kindergarten is run by Katie Harley, a qualified Steiner Waldorf teacher with many years experience of working within early years.  Seedlings takes place in a beautiful converted church hall, home to Copperdot Studio, in the village of Trowse Newton in Norwich.

Seedlings fosters a warm and caring home from home atmosphere, where children of mixed ages are encouraged to play in a creative and imaginative way with simple toys made from natural materials.  

The Steiner Waldorf philosophy of education believes that young children, when provided with a rich and nourishing environment, will develop healthily at their own pace, without the need for formal teaching or testing.  Each child is valued for their uniqueness, supported on their individual journey through life, and encouraged to reach their full potential in a nurturing and unhurried way.

Copperdot Studio is an innovative dance collaboration offering a range of dance and movement classes with a focus on creativity, health and wellbeing.  Seedlings Kindergarten runs alongside these classes, offering a range of childcare options to support parents of young children who may be leading or attending classes.  Seedlings also welcomes families who are not attending classes at Copperdot.

"Both my children have been very happy at Seedlings - I feel very fortunate that my children have had this rare opportunity to grow and thrive in such a nurturing environment led by Katie who is totally dedicated to providing the best possible experience for the children."

​Adam, Parent, July 2021

Seasonal Food Preperation

Everyone loves to join in with baking bread rolls for snack time, cutting up veg for soup, collecting and pressing apples for juice, collecting elderflowers for cordial, slicing apples and collecting plums to make crumble, or making special food for festivals such as pancakes or dragon bread...

Creative Play, Inside and Out 

Guided by their imaginations children engage in creative free play, both inside and out, using toys and equipment made from natural materials, which nurture the senses. Outside the children have space to run around, to climb and balance, to dig in the sandpit, or hide in the willow hut...

Songs, Rhymes, and Stories

Through singing we lead the children from one activity to another, as we follow the gentle rhythm of the morning.  Seasonal songs, rhymes and finger games are enjoyed by the children every day during 'circle time', and each morning ends with a fairytale or nature story...
