Waldorf or Montessori preschool

I think the Waldorf method could be interesting for some families but not for my family. The schools tend to have a religious connotation to it - and practice spirituality. I am raising my child to not prescribe to a type of religion. Also it’s not very academic focused and I am not sure if it’s right for our asian type of countries. Value is placed on arts and nature and less on rote learning and memorisation. I visited a Waldorf school in Australia recently and I got the impression that all they do is bake, draw, arts, dance and music. To be very frank I would only put my child in Waldorf if I realised she wasn’t very intelligent or had developmental delays.
