We welcome all ex students, teachers and staff, from Kindergarten to Class VIII, regardless of the amount of time you were at St Paul's. Over the nearly 30 year period we have been a Waldorf School, we have nurtured many children and we would love to know what wonderful things you are all doing now! It promises to be a Summer afternoon of rekindling contacts, reminiscing with old friends and meeting other St Paul's alumni. All St Paul's alumni welcome! // RSVP via link in our bio // please share! #alumni #waldorf #wearewaldorf #schoolreunion #community #waldorf #waldrfeducation #schoollife #schoolmemories #schoolmates #teacher #teacherlife

Today the whole lower school went to @barbicancentre to see @londonsymphonyorchestra play Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade as part of their discovery performances for students. They also got to see the @ibrahimmahama3 installation Purple Hibiscus and watch the fish in the beautiful Barbican estate. Class V walked there and back along the verdent New River walk in Islington. What a wonderfully cultured way to spend a morning, our children are lucky to regularly experience all London has to offer! #purplehibiscus #barbican #barbicancentre #artinstallation #lso #orchestra #schooltrip #holisticlearning #wearewaldorf #waldorf #waldorfeducation #creativeeducation #learning #lifelonglearning #loveoflearning #music #art #london #londonlife #ilovelondon #ilovelondon

As part of their food and farming block, Class III spent the day wheat weaving with @laura_bakes_bread. Wheat weaving is a craft deeply rooted in Britains pastoral heritage, encapsulating the art of transforming simple strands into intricate masterpieces. The children learnt the traditional art of plaiting wheat and creating different objects, with Laura who is fully engaged in reviving these local British art forms. They learnt the alchemy of nature and nimble fingers, and the varied, wonderful pleasures that golden wheat can give us, from bread to woven trinkets! #wheat #wheatweaving #weaving #traditionalcraft #traditionalart #craft #futureofcraft #craftsmanship #traditionalartist #crafts #artsandcrafts #crafty #wheatstraw #wheatsheaf #art #artist #wearewaldorf #waldorfeducation #waldorf

Class VII have started their Africa main lesson block by rendering diverse North East African landscapes in chalk pastel. The class embraced this medium and allowed themselves to overcome their instinct to be too detailed and controlled. We explored colour perspective, blending, texture and light and shade. The class explored the different tones in the blues, browns and greens of them landscapes. They were pleased with the results and the way pastels can create an atmosphere and feeling of a place. #africa #chalkpastel #chalkpastels #pastel #pasteldrawing #pasteldrawings #chalk #art #schoolart #schoolartwork #landscape #landscapeart #wearewaldorf #waldorf #waldorfeducation #waldorfteacher #teacher #creativeeducation #creative
