a Steiner Waldorf School, Bangalore
Community events in Waldorf schools are an integral part of Steiner Waldorf education. They are rooted in seasonal rhythms and cultural traditions. They provide opportunities for celebration, collaboration, and deepening relationships & social bonding among the members of our community. These events reflect the core values of togetherness, creativity, and respect for nature, local culture & foster a strong sense of connection among students, teachers, parents and the broader school community.
Sankranthi Santhe is our annual flagship event & we have been celebrating it for many years now. It is a day-long event on a Sunday, organised by the school community of Parents, Teachers & Volunteers. This event provides newcomers an opportunity to get a glimpse into the world of Kingdom Of Childhood's Community spirit that embraces an inclusive environment.
Handwork being an integral part of the Waldorf curriculum, this event is an opportunity for visitors to purchase beautiful Handmade craft items made by our students, teachers and parents and also to take part in workshops to learn various art forms. Also an opportunity to become a Waldorf Kindergarten child to see & experience our magical Waldorf Puppetry show, usually conducted on a rhythmic basis in our Kindergarten.
Working with Clay is therapeutic for children and is again a part of our curriculum. Children can come and enjoy this experience and take away something precious made by them.
A time to sit back and enjoy lovely Folk and Classical dances and Music performances by our parents and teachers. Face Painting, exciting indoor games and & many more interesting activities to keep children occupied all day! Last but not the least - FOOD - delicious & healthy food made by the parents of our school community will be available in food counters to satisfy your taste buds.
Parents of the school volunteer in large numbers to make this event meaningful and enjoyable for everybody. Sankranthi Santhe is a special occasion when we open our gates to everybody who is keen to know and experience the lovely environment of a Waldorf school.
We invite you to join us with your family and friends for our upcoming Sankranthi Santhe on Sunday, January 26, 2025 & experience the magic!
