    Preschool-Kindergarten Sampler

    10 am to noon

    Experience the magic of a Waldorf Preschool-Kindergarten classroom with your child and meet our Early Childhood Faculty. The morning will include circle time, free play and a story or puppet show. During free play, parents will  hear about the philosophy of Waldorf education, the history of Four Winds, and the objectives of our Preschool-Kindergarten programPlease call to RSVP 630-836-9400.

    In a time when children are increasingly pushed to grow up fast, Waldorf education seeks to understand and honor the natural unfolding of each child. Within our Preschool and Kindergarten programs, children’s capacities for creative thinking and problem solving are fostered through imaginative play while broad and fundamental experiences in movement, the arts, and practical “work” lay the foundation for later academic learning.

  • The Transformation of Work: The Transubstantiation of Money/The Economic-Spiritual Crisis of our Time

    02.29.12 - Wednesday -- 7:00 pm

    What is money?  What is work? Are we reaching a point, a tipping point, for a "paradigm shift" in economics? Like the Copernican revolution in cosmology or astronomy? What is a way towards a truly new spiritual-economic way of life? For us as individuals, for economic enterprises, for this country, for the global community?

    Please call 630-836-9400 to RSVP - Donations accepted at the door.
