The intention behind the workshop
Over six enriching days, the Humanising Education Workshops will bring together experienced Waldorf educators, therapists, parents, and teachers to explore the artistic, practical, and spiritual dimensions of education. The program features keynote lectures, experiential workshops, artistic activities, and collaborative discussions led by internationally respected presenters including Peter Lutzker, Jan van Gils, Julia O'Leary, Jo-anne Sarre, and Jayesh Narasimhulu. Morning lectures will explore themes such as meeting the developmental needs of children and adolescents, imagination, inspiration and intuition in teaching, puberty as "earth-maturity," the implications of artificial intelligence for education, and the emergence of new forms of thinking in the Michaelic age. Participants will engage deeply with questions concerning the role of education in nurturing the whole human being. Workshops throughout the week will include Shakespeare in Performance, creative speech and drama, performative approaches to teaching literature, observational phenomenological astronomy, eurythmy and movement in education, basket weaving and craft pedagogy, the Parsifal Project, and practical physics and astronomy experiments suitable for middle and high school students. Daily movement, singing, games, and eurythmy sessions will provide opportunities for artistic and social engagement, while plenums and interactive discussions will encourage reflection and dialogue among participants. A special focus of the program is the exploration of education as a living, human-centred process that integrates thinking, feeling, and willing. Through lectures, artistic practice, collaborative inquiry, and practical classroom applications, participants will explore how teaching can enliven relationships, support healthy development, and foster meaningful learning within contemporary educational settings. The workshops culminate in a concluding conversation on how education can strengthen and enrich relationships throughout the school community. |
