Waldorf-inspired learning on the farm and in the forest
At Ursa Farm School we believe that each human being has inherent value, and that each child should be supported and allowed to grow towards their full potential.

Seaforth Children’s Garden
Our approach is rooted in the warmth and rhythm of Waldorf education — a philosophy that honours the head, heart, and hands of every child. We believe learning unfolds naturally through imagination, rhythm, and connection to the seasons. Our days flow gently: singing and stories in circle time, hands busy with baking or handwork, and long stretches of outdoor play in all weather. We mark the changing seasons with simple, meaningful celebrations — lantern walks for Martinmas, candlelight for Advent, flower crowns for May Day, & joyful song for Midsummer.
