Welcome to Northern Lights School
Re-Imagining Education in Thunder Bay
Northern Lights School is developmentally appropriate, holistic, creative and relevant. We have chosen a Waldorf-inspired curriculum to support students unfold their potential by educating the whole child – head, heart and hands.
Through a connection to nature and learning through storytelling and the arts the children are supported in being happy, whole and healthy.
