Festivals
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

At holiday times we draw upon celebrations associated with ancient agricultural festivals, the turning of the seasons, and an acknowledgment of the mystery and beauty of the universe and the interconnectedness of all life within it. Our main festivals include a Harvest Festival in the fall, an Evergreen Spiral ceremony in winter, and spring and May Day celebrations.

Games & Physical Education

Students participate in regular physical education and meet with other Northern California Waldorf schools in age-appropriate athletic competitions: a Greek Games, a Medieval Games, and track meets. Movement is practiced through Eurythmy, theatrical fencing, unicycling, and on an elective basis, ethnic dance.

   

In all Grades - Vocal and instrumental music, foreign languages, handwork, language arts and reading, mathematics, painting, modeling, music, eurythmy, drama, form drawing, calligraphy, gardening and ecology.
