We are so lucky to have a public Waldorf Inspired school here in Sacramento where my daughter is now attending. We LOVE it!!!! Such an amazing way to educate children.
I graduated from a waldorf school five years ago and this really does capture all of the priceless gifts I received from my waldorf education- great film!
It is a blessing when you find a teacher you cares deeply for your child's learning and overall being. Many families can't pay for a private education. Unfortunately, Walfdorf falls into the private category and is not an option for everyone. Don't give up, there are teachers in other schools which follow a similar model. All children deserve an education in a school who cares for them deeply.
I'm so touched every time I see this video. As someone who works at at Steiner Daycare in the Philippines, this deeply affirms my being a part of this education movement. (Happy to see the map at 4:17!!) : )
Too late for me :'( Im 19 but this seems like something I've always wished for. I love the concept of it and I hope my future kids will have something like this, really.
Never a 15 film touched me so much like this.I'm from Brazil and I feel exactly the same of the people in the documentary , that are thausands miles away from me. Once Waldorf , Waldorf forever!!! Love for everybody
9:49 Accept Children with Reverence, Educate them with Love, Send them forth in Freedom. - Rudolf Steiner (1861 - 1925) Founder of Waldorf School, Austrian philosopher, social reformer, architect and esotericist
I graduated from a waldorf school in Brazil 12 years ago (damn I'm old). Its awesome to realize that the principles and the methods are exactly the same. Great movie, inspiring!
Interesting to hear parent, teacher, alumni, Waldorf experts ideas and impressions of Waldorf Education. An inspiration for those who might consider it. I will tell the parents in my class about this.
"Love is higher than opinion. If people love one another the most varied opinions can be reconcilied - thus one of the most important task for humankind today and in the future is that we should learn to live together and understand one another. If this human being is not achieved, all talk of development is empty." -Rudolph Steiner Well duh is the most obvious thing in the entire universe, love is the primarly force that makes people to EVOLVE with the whole planet!!!!! People learn to love, be kind and gentle and you can achieve anything!
My children going to the Fészek (nest) Waldorf school in Solymár Hungary. Beautiful documentary. I am just envy of the conditions of these schools, here it is just not the same.
Perfectly captures what is wonderful about Waldorf Education. Captures our experience well---even though my son's school is on the opposite side of North America!
having taught State schools and schools in foreign countries I at last became a Steiner/Waldorf teacher. At last! A system which acknowledges each child's unique potential and expands his/her capacities. I have written a substantial Steiner/Waldorf teachers'handbook called TEACH THE CHILD IN LOVE and am now looking at how to publish it. Can anyone help please?
yendyS1936 a large part of steiners philosophy was to make education accessable for everyone. so maybe contact them, there are scholarships, maybe you can get one. be really enthusiastic about the school. about the philosophy.
Thanks for this film !! Myself go in a 9. class in a waldorf school too and it's amazing ;) Again thanks ! That film discribes the reality in a waldorf school. Nice dokumentation. Greetings from germany ;)
This is a nice video about Waldorf education, for anyone who's curious about it. Even for those of you who already know about it, this is a well put together piece, that really sees into the heart of what goes on in Waldorf education. Reply
This is such a beautiful video. I love the concept of a Waldorf education. In my eyes, it's the ideal for our three year old daughter. She has such a bright spirit with a unique sense of curiosity that may place her in a bewildering position in public school. Unfortunately, there's no way in the world that we could ever afford to send her a Waldorf school. For those of you who can, please know that you have a wonderful opportunity for your child. Please don't take it for granted.
I would love to put my son to school like this but I don't have the finances to do that. I think normal schools are not doing enough for our kids. It's just a place where they are locked up to keep them off the streets. Why can't we choose how to use public money to pick school for our children??? Our children are not tough any instruments at school anymore they. My son knows more from me than his teacher. He hates school. Wade school looks like a dream. I wish I could be rich and put him there. Sniff sniff.
+Eva K In Arizona they now allow this. What about financial aid? What about learning Waldorf education and using it in your home and homeschooling him with the Waldorf method?
you dont have to be rich to create such an environment for your kids to learn. all you need is a REAL sense of community and you and your neighbors can make it happen.
Have you contacted any schools around you, I know in the UK schools try very hard to bridge financial gaps as it was a priority of Steiner to make the schools inclusive and available to anyone who was willing and enthusiastic! Good luck x
Yeah Creativity is a great thing to try and encourage, but I'm curious as to how they teach stuff like chemistry? Maths can be taught like philosophy, but not the softer sciences

In the german waldorfschool near to us rich parents pay for pupils whose parents could not afford this - that is a good thing!
Lichtstrahl 7 that is amazing. That makes me happy. The children are our future after all.
I am extremely interested in becoming a Waldorf teacher. I can only imagine how peaceful our world would be if public schools taught this way....
I graduated from a waldorf school five years ago and this really does capture all of the priceless gifts I received from my waldorf education- great film!
I really wish I had gone to a school like this!
...if only every child had this glorious opportunity. We keep working at that...

My only issue with Waldorf schools is- not enough of them, and cost!
I’ve been in Waldorf school and kindergarten since age 3 (now I’m in 8th) and I love it! We all like to learn 😁
A beautiful testament to the power of education that treats children as amazing talented beings to be inspired.
If I had a child, I wish nothing more than it could go into this kind of school. This is a Masterpiece.

yendyS1936 you can get a scholarship!

Look into the Alliance for Public Waldorf Education. There are plenty of Waldorf charter schools that are free!
Thanks for this film !!
Myself go in a 9. class in a waldorf school too and it's amazing ;)

Beautiful, I always tear up when I see this!
This video shows what my personal experience was as a student and teacher ! Adriana von Runic RSS Munich Allumna
The child learns best when she loves her teacher and her teacher loves her? Homeschooling for the win! :D
A wonderful & informative production about a great school :)
This is a great video:
Excellence in Reading in Waldorf Education
If only I could go.....
I have 3 kids at a Waldorf school in Brazil and it feels exactly how they describe it!
I teared up!!! Amazing video.
