A Day in the Classroom
A Day in the ClassroomAn opportunity for adults to experience Steiner Waldorf Education
Saturday 3rd March 2012 8.15am-1pm
An exceptional opportunity to experience a typical day in the life of a Michael Hall pupil. Choose from either: Early Years, Lower School or Upper School and see for yourself how the curriculum works within various lessons.
You’ll be treated just like any other student with a snapshot of the current tuition being taught to that class by the class teachers themselves. These days are immense fun with most of the parents enjoying it so much that they are loathed to leave at the end of the day. The day is open to all parents, teachers and anyone interested in learning more about our wide-ranging curriculum.
In the Kindergarten you will immerse yourself in the rhythm of the morning with its creative play, activities and movement held in a beautiful and nurturing environment.
In the Lower School take your place behind a desk in the classroom and see how the children are taught by current teachers at Michael Hall.
In the Upper School is your opportunity to see how students aged 14-18 are met by the teachers at Michael Hall and how the Steiner Waldorf education complements and enhances the GCSE and A Level programme.
If you cannot make this one the next course will be confirmed soon.
For more information or to book your place please either email Julie Ruse at julie.ruse@michaelhall.co.uk or call 01342 822275

Students Comments
"Simply amazing! Making bread from start to finish was really a wonderful experience, especially as we experienced it as seen through a childs eyes!"
"I enjoyed the gentle pace of the Kindergarten Programme and the feeling I got of how 'child led' the education is."
"I found the whole morning very enlightening and enjoyable. From the start of the English Lesson I felt I was on a journey from being non-creative and a mumbling voice to creative verse, articulate and bold. I'm quite pleased with what 'I' achieved in such a short amount of time and it gained further confidence for me that my child will also."
"Fabulous, I was completely absorbed in the history leading to the discovery of gravity in my first ever Physics lesson."
"I was really happy to experience first hand what my son would experience at this stage in the Upper School."
"A wonderful and restful experience! Thank you for a great insight into the activities and atmosphere of the school!"
"It is nice to experience the education 1st hand, something you can not get from a book/website."
"It's wonderful to learn of the nourishment given to children at the school, it goes so deep and nourishes all elements of the child!"
"I am a parent in the Parent & Child group and I wanted to remind myself of why my child would come here to start in Kindergarten, thank you!"
"I will take what I have learnt and adapt as much as I can to what I do in my nursery school, very child led which is imperative!"
