John Stewart is a widely travelled and renowned educator, consultant and author who has featured on The Politically Incorrect Parenting Show, Kerry-Ann show, and the Today show. I'm one of eight kids and we all attended the local schools. My father was a doctor and used to drive around in an old blue Mercedes. The building formerly occupied by Dr Stewart's surgery is being renovated to become his son's school.

We were eight kids in 10 years, so as we were growing older, he built another block and then another so everyone had their own room. Anyway, they moved out while I was overseas and closed the door and left it a bit like a time capsule. I'd been teaching all around the world, and came back because they are now at an age where they probably need a little bit of support - my father does especially - and I had this great dream of coming back from the Green School in Bali where I was working and creating a school here.

I'm registered from kindergarten to year 8 so I've got the option to fulfill that however I'd like to start with a five, six, seven, eight program to begin with, and maybe a kindergarten so I can grow. I'm waiting to see what the interest is. In a way I always wanted to be a teacher. I went travelling around the world before settling down for a time in England with my now wife.

I think that my English teaching experiences taught me that there are disciplines for confidence. We need to teach and educate with mindfulness and also with the sense of the individual.

Back in Australia, Central Coast Grammar was really about family connections.

The school in London was all about how you can use a building but the school is really the people who are in connected into it, which is one of the key elements of Living School. The headmaster was very progressive. But he was that sort of person. Very intelligent.
