So much-loved beautiful bread and cake was baked today by the parents, teachers and children! Thank you for your generosity. The children feasted on dragon bread together. In a similar vein to the many harvest festivals around the world, Michaelmas is both a celebration of the fecundity of the season and a preparation for the long winter months ahead. Our school community offer donations of food and work collectively in cleaning, planting, pruning and harvesting in an effort to prepare for the long dark months of winter. The Michaelmas Festival is an opportunity to celebrate together the final harvest fruits, taking heed of our environment in a bid to imbue the spirit of the season within us all. #michaelmas #festival #harvest #harvesttime #bread #breadbaking #dragonbread #baking #bakinglove #breadmaking #artisanbread #cake #cakemaking #classroom #classroompinspirations #classroomdecor #waldorfeducation #waldorf #waldorfcalendar #waldorfinspired

We go outside whatever the weather! Class II had a beautifully warm and sunny walk in Hampstead Heath this week. Last week was wet, but despite the weather, Class III had a lovely time making a den together. They enjoyed the epic mud. All our children have full waterproofs so they are prepared and able to experience all weathers, all times of the year. #rain #hampstead #hampsteadheath #heath #mud #den #denbuilding #walk #walking #naturewalk #naturewalks #naturewalks #forset #forestschool #learningthroughplaying #learningthroughplay #learningthroughnature #learningthroughfun
