The Waldorf Kindergarten was founded in 2010 at Vedavyas Schools in Udumalpet. It marked the inception of the first Kindergarten classroom initially comprising one teacher and thirteen students.

Fourteen years after its establishment, the Kindergarten now fully embraces the Waldorf method, characterized by a daily rhythm harmoniously integrated with Nature. Additionally, the school accommodates students up to Grade 5, where the curriculum operates with a Waldorf-inspired pedagogy, tailored to meet the specific needs and requirements of the Udumalpet community.

Ms. Shanmugapriya Vidyashankar brought over six years of experience in Montessori education at the elementary and grade levels when she joined Vedavyas Schools. Drawing from her deep understanding of children and their perspectives, she began a playgroup in her home with a small number of children.

As she sought to enrich the experiences of these children and their families through the abundant natural resources in Udumalpet, she found herself drawn to the Waldorf pedagogy, which encouraged a more mindful approach amidst the fast pace of modern life.

Priya recognized significant parallels between her own childhood experiences and the Waldorf curriculum, appreciating its depth and relevance, particularly within the context of Udumalpet.

Motivated by this realization, she not only removed artificial materials from her playgroup but also reoriented her teaching methods and engaged parents and fellow educators in the Waldorf philosophy.

Together with two other teachers, she undertook training in the Waldorf foundation course and actively interacted with the children. Through daily meaningful practices, the school received approval from Sadhana. The Kindergarten section of the school stands out as a vibrant and pure environment, where young children flow through their day with joy and curiosity.
