Working with the Angels
February 6, 2012
In the first three years of life, before the child is so engrossed in material life, it has a close relationship with the angels. At night, while asleep, the children meet their angels. They dream of them or have other experiences of them. As we grow up, the qualities of our childhood mature and develop in us and can evolve as imagination, inspiration and intuition. We too can relate to the angels. It generally happens in our sleep, for it is such a remarkable experience that we might be filled with fear if these contacts were to happen in our waking life. Hence, in the Bible, when Gabriel visits Mary, he begins by saying, "Fear not." More »
Conveying an Interest in the World - Children Should Receive Two Things from Their Parents: Roots and Wings
January 30, 2012
Anyone who wants to find their bearings in the future must first learn to trust their own experiences, their own senses and thoughts, and their own heart. They require people around them who work creatively, places in which they can develop trust in people, test out their own powers and share them with other children. Where the journey takes us is determined by ourselves as freely acting people. In 1992 the slogan “Think globally, act locally” emerged from Rio de Janeiro, encapsulating in a down-to-earth way how a global culture of responsibility can arise. But as simple as this slogan sounds, as difficult it is to put into practice: without living thinking, an interest in the world and resolve, nothing will come of it. That is why it is one of the central educational tasks of the present time to develop these three capacities on every continent, in every culture. More »
Toddlers to tweens: relearning how to play
January 25, 2012
Brown became interested in play as a young clinical psychiatrist when he was researching, somewhat incongruously, mass murderers. Although he concluded that many factors contributed to the psychosis of his subjects, Brown noticed that a common denominator was that none had participated in standard play behavior as children, such as interacting positively with parents or engaging in games with other children. As he continued his career, he took "play histories" of patients, eventually recording 6,000. He saw a direct correlation between play behavior and happiness, from childhood into adulthood. More »

"Here Is the New South Africa" - The McGregor Waldorf School
January 23, 2012
The story of the water bearer gives a picture of what the McGregor Waldorf School and College are all about. Flaws come in many different seizes and shapes but as teachers we learn to recognize them in our children and in ourselves. We plant seeds every single day and water them carefully so that one day the inner beauty, the innate qualities, the specific gifts of any and all of our students can flower. Because of them being the way they are and will be their families, their communities, their country and the world are and will be a better place. More »
