The reasons are many and include cultural as well as socio-demo- graphic and purely practical ones. With regard to private businesses such as those of the SEKEM Group, many problems remain with rather profane matters of implementa- tion and a continuous adaptation of business processes and work- flows that must fit the needs of individuals and large institutions alike.

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.

  • Newsletter from the Performing Arts Section
    Newsletter from the Performing Arts Section Easter 2015 FOREWORD Dear newsletter readers, dear colleagues I started as the new head of the Section for the Performing Arts in January. This means that I now have the opportunity to meet people, to get to know initiatives and to take a new look at many situations. I am eager to see what will develop and curious to discover more about the quality of Section life, whether individuals in their own community feel that their work is part of the Section or not and what kind of collaboration and support is needed today. In any case I want to ask all of you to get in touch at any time to let me know your suggestions, your wishes and requests, your criticisms: I am simply curious! Every ‘newbie’ is also given the opportunity to question the status quo in a quite new and perhaps ‘stupid’ way, so I am letting you know that the newsletter from the next issue will change in appearance. In exchange with Silke Kollewijn, Hanna Koskinen, Michael Kurtz and Marcel Sorge we have for now come to the following decisions: The newsletter will continue to contain: • substantial contributions relating to aspects of eurythmy, Creative Speech and music • reports with a broad, long-term perspective (and that will therefore still be of interest in years to come) • some biographies of those who have died • current discussions on themes relating to specific subjects • questions about the Section: what are the different ideas of the Section? How does the Section live? What can we share with each other on this theme in the forum that this newsletter offers? The newsletter will no longer contain: • appointments and announcements.

  • Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin, Architects of Anthroposophy
    Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin, Architects of Anthroposophy Dr John Paull [email protected] A century ago, on the 23rd of May 1912, the winning design of Canberra was announced. Soon after, two talented Chicago architects set sail for Australia. Their plan for Australia’s national capital, already named Canberra but at the time merely an empty paddock, had won first prize in an international competition which attracted 137 entries. The winning prize money for the design was a modest £1750 (McGregor, 2009). Walter Burley Griffin (1876-1937) and Marion Mahony (1871-1961) were married in the year preceding the win. Marion had nagged Walter to enter the competition, “What’s the use of thinking about a thing like this for ten years if when the time comes you don’t get it done in time!” She pointed out the practicalities: “Perhaps you can design a city in two days but the drawings take time and that falls on me” (Griffin, 1949, volume IV p.294). After the win was announced, Walter declared: “I have planned it not in a way that I expected any government in the world would accept. I have planned an ideal city - a city that meets my ideal of a city of the future” (New York Times, 1912). Marion chronicled events of their life together in a typewritten four- volume memoir of over 1600 pages (Griffin, 1949). Her memoir documents their life together and liberally reproduces personal correspondence between them and their associates. Her unpublished manuscript reveals the intensity with which she and Walter embraced the thoughts of Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) and anthroposophy.

  • THE ANTHROPOSOPHICAL MOVEMENT and the WALDORF EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM Liselotte Frisk Introduction the Anthroposophical Movement
    THE ANTHROPOSOPHICAL MOVEMENT AND THE WALDORF EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM Liselotte Frisk Introduction The Anthroposophical movement originated with Rudolf Steiner (1861–1925) in Berlin in 1912. The Anthroposophical movement has inspired several cultural developments, the most important ones being biodynamic agriculture, holistic health care, the Waldorf educational system, architecture, and art. The subject of this chapter is the Waldorf educational system, which grew out of Anthroposophy in 1919.1 Emil Holt was a friend of Rudolf Steiner, an Anthroposophist, and owner of the Waldorf-Astoria Cigarette Factory in Stuttgart. He founded the first school with Anthroposophical inspiration for his workers’ children.2 The school grew quickly from the start, and soon had many pupils from all kinds of backgrounds (Steiner 1995d: 97). After four years, it had grown to accom- modate eight hundred students in twelve grades. In 1922, the founding of the first Waldorf school in Holland was initiated; the first Waldorf school in England was founded in 1925, and the first American Waldorf school started in 1928 (Querido 1996: vii–viii). From one hundred and sixty schools worldwide in 1977 (Carlgren 1978: 55) and six hundred in 1996 (Querido 1996: viii), today there are more than nine hundred Waldorf schools all over the world (Association of Waldorf Schools in America n.d.). The development and comparative success of the Waldorf educational system could be attributed to several different causes. According to the production of culture perspective (Peterson and Anand 2004), the six-facet model of production encompasses technology, laws and regulation, indus- try structure, organisation structure, occupational careers and the market.

SEA is the peak national body comprising 41 Member Schools and 11 Associate Members across Australia. We represent over 8,000 students and their families, in all States and Territories of Australia. We are part of the 900 non-systemic independent schools in Australia that are funded according to individual funding arrangements.

  • Federation of Independent Rudolf Steiner Schools
    Goetheanum ■ School of Spiritual Science Federation of Independent Medical Section Rudolf Steiner Schools Second Joint Statement of the Federation of Independent Waldorf Schools and the Medical Section at the Goetheanum on the Covid-19 Pandemic Hamburg/Dornach, November 9, 2020: Corona, this much is becoming increasingly clear, is not a temporary nightmare that will soon blow away. We will have to learn to live with it as we do with other dangerous pathogens. In the medium term we will succeed in doing so, but for now the pandemic has shaken up most of our well-established social, communicative, interactive, cultural and hygienic habits – and will probably continue to do so for the foreseeable future. With the number of infections rising steeply again throughout Europe since the beginning of autumn, as the sun’s intensity1 diminishes, we see an increase in the insecurities, fears, frustrations and tensions that burden our society as a whole, but especially educators, teachers and parents in kindergartens and schools, who find themselves confronted with ever new restrictions. The responsible committees of these institutions are faced with the difficult task of having to implement the official regulations on the one hand, while at the same time ensuring that an educational life can unfold which opens up encounters with the environment for children through sensory experiences, their desire to feel with the world and their urge to move, as well as through their imagination, their curiosity and their will to think. This has increasingly led to conflicts that can only be overcome if the partial justification of contradictory aspects can be recognized in collegial discussions and then creative solutions are sought.
