A well-Rounded Experience

Davis Waldorf School offers a variety of exciting opportunities to visit local points of interest while learning. Field trips provide authentic, hands-on experiential learning opportunities where students can connect what they are learning in their classrooms, in a real world context.

Field Trips

In the Waldorf journey, field trips are more than outings—they are soul-stirring pilgrimages into the living world, where lessons leap off the page and into the senses. When students step into the echoing halls of the Mondavi Center, they do more than watch a performance; they feel the heartbeat of human creativity. At Sutter’s Fort, history comes alive beneath their fingertips as they churn butter, forge iron, and walk the dusty paths of pioneers—not as distant figures, but as part of their own unfolding story. At Pt. Reyes, they breathe in the salt-laced wind, climb the ancient bluffs, and marvel at the pulsing tide, reconnecting to the Earth as a teacher in her own right. These field trips and many others are in store for your Waldorf student. For Waldorf families, these experiences are not side-notes to the curriculum but radiant threads in the fabric of learning—immersive, unforgettable, and rooted in the belief that the world itself is a worthy classroom.

Tours are closed for the summer and will resume in October 2025.
