Adventures in Anthroposophic Education: Born in Revolution- Education Towards Freedom in Uncertain Times
March 19 @ 5:30 pm
Presented by Tom Clark:
The Waldorf School was created in 1919 during the German revolution, a time of
political, economic, and social chaos. During this turbulent time, Rudolf Steiner
inaugurated an education toward Freedom, Equality, and Brotherhood, that became
the Waldorf School we know today. In our turbulent times as well, it is a challenge for
parents and teachers to create an environment and an education in which those
values can become an integral part of the lives of the students.
This presentation will offer an experience and an understanding of how in each class,
Waldorf teachers strive to nurture these qualities of Freedom, Equality, and
Sister/Brotherhood so essential for our children today.
