Festivals and Rythms

During the year the kindergartens celebrate many festivals; we celebrate Easter, the Autumn Harvest, Midwinter, Spring and Christmas. There are lanterns in winter and a maypole dance in spring. These festivals are times of magic and wonder for children and adults alike. They are also marker posts for the yearly rhythm.

The strong daily, weekly, and seasonal rhythms bring all these activities into a form which the children can experience again and again. A sense of familiarity and security is created which reduces feelings of reserve and increases confidence and joy.

Please contact the office for further information or to arrange a time to visit and talk with our teachers. Stepping inside a Steiner kindergarten has won many an adult over and started a journey into something special – not just for their child, but for the whole family.
