Nowruz mobarak to all our families and staff celebrating! Nowruz, the Persian New Year, is a 3,000-year-old celebration of spring, rooted in the ancient religion of Zoroastrianism. It begins on the first day of the Iranian calendar, usually on or around 20 March, or Spring Equinox, and lasts for 13 days. With deep reverence for fertility, nature and new beginnings, it's celebrated by around 300 million people across Iran, Azerbaijan, Afghanistan and Central Asia, as well as in Kurdish, Turkic Uyghur and Parsi communities worldwide. We were lucky enough to have a parent who built this beautiful Haft Seen table for us in our entrance. Class I have celebrated with the story of Naneh Sarma, Iranian biscuits and jumping over candles! #nowruz #nowruzmobarak #persian #persiannewyear #wearewaldorf #waldorfeducation #celebration #celebrate

Class IV have produced some beautiful work for their Animal Projects. They each chose an animal to research and produced a book of facts and images. They realised their animal in various mediums like clay, paint on paper, papier mache, wool and plaster. The class presented their work to parents and other classes yesterday. Well done Class IV! #art #artproject #project #artlover #drawing #wearewaldorf #waldorf #waldorfeducation #animallover #animal #animals #animalplanet #nature creative education
