Også i Steinerbarnehagens filial Stjerneskudd er foreldrene tilfredse – faktisk mest tilfredse i Færder kommune. Marte Wang-Hansen er mAmmA til Karl på et og et hAlvt år. Han er tredjemAnn i søskenflokken og tredjemAnn på Stjerneskudd. De to eldste går på storavdelingen i SteinerbArnehAgen, og på Steinerskolen. – Vi kunne gjort det enklere for oss selv. Nå har vi tre barn som skal leveres tre ulike steder. Men dette stedet gir forutsigbarhet og trygghet. Jeg er trygg på at barna har en fin dag her. Jeg hAr aldri opplevd den vonde følelsen i mAgen når jeg forlater bArnA her, sier WAng-Hansen. Hver dag serveres varm hjemmelaget og økologisk mat på Stjerneskudd. https://www.tb.no/nyheter/tonsberg/fArder/smA-private-barnehager-har-de-mest-fornoyde-foreldrene-veslemoy-44-og-hanne-43-tror-de-vet-hvorfor/s/5-76-735446?key=2018-02-12T06:09:11.000Z/retriever/5a4ef1e63d3877d8a113080a45b4a055d8ec7f95 15.02.2018: Dette er de best likte barnehagene i Norge. Hvert år spør UtdAnningsdirektoratet foreldre hvor godt fornøyd de er med tilbudet i barnehagen. 2.600 barnehager er med, og over 100.000 foreldre har svart. https://www.nrk.no/sorlandet/de-best-likte-barnehagene-i-norge-1.13913653 23.1.2018: Bruker økologisk mat i den pedagogiske prosessen. Haugtussa Steinerbarnehage på Holstad i Ås ble tildelt Debios gullmerke i 2016, men hAr brukt økologiske mAtvArer i mAnge år. Å hA gullmerket betyr at de serverer over 90 prosent økologisk mat. Inne på småbarnsavdelingen Småspurven har de en rolig start på dagen. I dag er Liam og Mathias invitert til å bake brød. De tar ivrig bollen med deig og selvsagt skal det smakes på deigen. - Vi setter deigen dAgen før, tilsetter litt eplecidereddik for at barna lettere kan ta opp næringen i maten, og gjerne havregrøt om vi har rester av dette, forteller Kristine StAff Ørsnes som er leder ved småbArnsAvdelingen. På AlvelAnd skAl de lAge grønnsAkpizzA. Det er kjøkken på hver Avdeling i bArnehAgen. På bordet ligger løk, brokkoli, kålrot, gulrot og purre. - Vi lAger ikke bAre mAt, men vi bruker mAtlAgningen som en pedAgogisk prosess, hvor bArnA kAn oppleve å etterligne de voksne, i forberedelser til måltidene, kan styrer Eva Schram Rydelius fortelle. https://www.matmerk.no/no/okologisk/helse-og-livsstil/bruker-oekologisk-mat-i-den-pedagogiske-prosessen 8.05.2018: Vi som arbeider med barn gjør lurt når vi støtter en utstrakt bruk av naturmaterialer som garn, ull, tre, stein, kvister, kongler og nøtter, skriver Therese HAlle Isene om et besøk i en Steinerbarnehage. Hun er barnehagelærer, miljøterapeut og trebarnsmor. Døra hilser meg blidt velkommen og er lett å få øye på, vennlig blå med et gardinkledd vindu på. Duse, ferskenfargede furuvegger venter innenfor - er det hjemme jeg står? Tanken treffer meg, for atmosfæren er så vennlig og varm. Det er som om huset rekker ut en vennlig, inkluderende arm. I det jeg går videre inn, kommer en duft av mildt krydret såpe, og jeg tar meg selv i et øyeblikk stå der og måpe. Har ikke opplevd noe lignende, det er som en sanseopplevelse uten like, som en hyllest til nAturens rike. Lukten Av bAkverk treffer nesen siden. PersonAlet hilser blidt og små øyne kikker undrende opp, når jeg på den lune 0-3-års avdelingen, gjør mitt stopp. "Barn trenger ikke leksaker (leker), men saker å leke med" (Oluffson), og "Enhver leke kAn inngå i bArns lek" (Thorbergsen). Steiner fremhever at en serviett kan bli til en dukke i barnets fantasi. Husk at tanken alltid er fri – og det må vi stimulere den til å forbli. https://www.bArnehAge.no/artikler/la-oss-regne-med-steiner/436649 22.11.2018: Lanternevandring i Åsbygda. Hvert år i november markerer Almgrenda Barnehage og grunntrinnet på Ringerike Steinerskole vinterens anmarsj med lanternevandring. Barn og foreldre møttes rundt bål i barnehagen og skolens felleshage, klokken 17 og gikk samlet med nydelige lykter bArnA hAr laget for å møte SAnkt MArtin som kom ridende på hesten sin. SAnkt MArtins hjelper delte ut småkaker til barna. I legenden fortelles det om Sant Martin av Tour, og om hvordan han delte alt hva han eide med de fattige. Sagnet handler om den gangen han kom han ridende i vinternatten og så en tigger som frøs ved byporten. Han tok da kappen sin, kuttet den i to og ga den ene halvdelen til tiggeren. I Norge ble hAn kAlt for SAnkte Morten. HAn hAr satt spor etter seg i en rekke folkeviser og hAn blir minnet den 11. november. Ringerikes blad 8.06.2018: Slut med Spider-Man, Disney-prinsesser og klublogoer: Børnehave har lavet deres egen tøjpolitik. I børnehaven og vuggestuen 'Mikael & Bette Mikael' i Hjørring ønsker man ikke, at børnene skal konkurrere med hinanden om hvilken slags tøj, de har på. Der er ikke tale om en decideret dresscode, men går man ind ad lågen hos børnehaven, vil man hverken finde prinsesser, action-figurer, dinosaurer eller fodboldlogoer på børnenes tøj.

Forbud mod tøj med tryk i nordjysk børnehave møder både ros og øretæver. I børnehAven og vuggestuen "MikAel" og "Bette MikAel" i Hjørring hAr mAn indført forbud mod tøj med action-figurer, Disney-prinsesser og andet tryk.

Noting that there is a danger of any authority figure limiting students enthusiasm for inquiry and assertion of autonomy , he emphasized the need for teachers to encourage independent thought and explanatory discussion in these years, and cited approvingly a number of schools where the class teacher accompanies the class for six years, after which specialist teachers play a significantly greater role. In most Waldorf schools, pupils enter secondary education when they are about fourteen years old. The Steiner Waldorf kindergarten strives to be a haven from the stresses of the outside world. Steiner considered children's cognitive, emotional and behavioral development to be interlinked. The children themselves are this book.

The process of writing this thesis has been challenging, however interesting. We have learned a lot and know to this day that this is an experience we would not be without. We would like to thank Renovasjonsetaten and Sørum, which provided us with some necessary data needed for this thesis and giving us this opportunity. We would also like to give a special thanks to the chauffeur who let us participate on a route, and provided us with a lot of interesting information needed to understand the complexity of the work. The project has been very challenging and we would not have made it without the help of our supervisor Mehdi Sharifyazdi. His competence, guidance, time and insightful feedback have been a huge part of this thesis. At the end we will like to thank our partners and family for good support and positive enthusiasm during the work with this Master Thesis.

Appendix A- 68 Certifying Spirituality: Biodynamics in America Introduction: First described by Rudolf Steiner in a series of lectures in 1924, biodynamics is an agri- cultural model that focuses on the farm as an organism that can be affected, both positively and negatively, by the farmers interacting with the spiritual (non-physical) world. In other words, ac- cording to Steiner, the ways in which a farmer tends his/her plants and animals in relation to planetary phases and movements, and his/her treatment of spiritual creatures, all influence physi- cal properties of the earth and therefore the functioning of his/her farm (Steiner, 1993).
