The program highlights with each class the growth and changes that they are going through. This includes puberty and the physical and emotional changes that go hand in hand over this time. The content is age appropriate for each class. It aims to deepen the young person’s healthy relationship to themselves and encourages greater understanding, mutual respect and compassion for the other members of their class and the school community.

Caregivers/Parents

The content is help to recognise the relevant depth and progression anthroposophy brings to this important aspect of life and the responsibility of community in raising children and working together to promote individual wellbeing.

We look at how and when we work with children to bring the understanding of sexuality and gender in relation to where they are in their consciousness. This brings harmony between the evolving body and inner experiences that sets the ground for healthy adult experience.

The talk will cover the themes of the content brought to the students and some of the main issues confronting child health and wellbeing in current times, with examples of how we can counter the unbalancing effects. We also address how to understand gender differences and similarities that both limit or free us and the contribution and struggles of the changing social structures around gender and sexuality affecting us all.

Workshop

Hand and Foot Bathing

When we turn ourselves to the life-giving nature of water in our daily lives and enliven our daily self-care hygienic practises, the benefits we receive can increase health-giving and restorative possibilities. Our transitions throughout the day and night, the week, the seasons, at home, in our work place, and at school can then become gateways for freeing the way for restoration of rest, order and harmony, rippling out to as well support others in our care and in our community.

Come to experience and share in the support that can be received from hand and footbaths. This session will offer an opportunity for care and renewal. Small children are welcome to be present in the care of their parent/guardian.

Individual Sessions

Footbaths and handbaths are offered to staff during the school day.

Teacher’s Questions

Exploring how the inclusion of water in the classroom through tea, foot baths and hand baths could be worked with to support transitions. How could the ways of water offer support to help towards harmony in individual children and the whole class and be a basis for healthy daily hygiene and self care, create a culture of care for ourselves, in the class  and for the other, as well as supporting our senses, and restoring our uprightness and ability to learn? Working with water in the classroom can enable inclusion.
