Join Us On a Creative Journey... 

As we wander through the season of waning light, embark with us on a journey to explore what the lights of Advent mean in relation to Waldorf education at Summerfield, and discover how this relates to the development of the child throughout the grades.

The Parent Education Initiative has put together a series of Arts and Crafts workshops prefaced with a keynote talk, so that parents may have a window into the ‘development of thinking’ in their children. We’ll have the chance to learn how working hands-on with materials trains capacities such as imaginative thinking, strengthening the will and picturing abstract math.

KEYNOTE LECTURE BY KEN SMITH :: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 7-9PM ::  SOPHIA HALL

Our dynamic opening speaker is Ken Smith, Director of the Bay Area Center for Waldorf Teacher Training. Ken has worked in Waldorf education with children and adults for more than 20 years after completing his studies in Anthroposophy, Art and Education at Emerson College, England. Hear his talk to open the doorway into this picture of self-development through the Arts and Crafts.
