Dear Parents,
We have come to the end of Class One! It is quite unbelievable. Now we can have a happy holiday and good rest. I hope that you will have the time and space to spend with your family and friends and be filled with the golden light of the sun and the love and joy that being together can bring. All the reports and books are ready for collection. The children have truly done beautiful work. You can be very proud of them. I hope that you will find the reports valuable. They are written for you, the parents to read. As from Class Three the children will get a personal report addressed to them. Please use your discretion well when sharing some parts with your children. I am sure that they will appreciate some feedback, but there are some aspects, which are not appropriate yet – one day they may find these insights valuable. Each child is given a Life Verse for next year. The Life verse, also known as Report or Birthday verse, is an individual verse written or chosen for each child by the teacher each year as inner guidance for the following year. The child learns the verse off by heart and recites it on their own once a week in front of the class, for the whole school year. The verse speaks to a certain part of the child, whether a strength or a challenge. The rest of the class listens quietly and soon everyone knows everyone else’s verse and the whole class benefits from the words spoken and felt. Your child can spend the holiday learning it, but does not need to have perfected it by the start of school. I will work through the individual verses with each child. *Please try not to analyse and discuss the meaning of the verse with your child. Allow the verse to grow in meaning for the child. I would like to thank you all for the support and encouragement you gave me this year and for allowing this to flow as they needed. A special thanks to Doug for his support, for being around to help hold the space for all of us. I wish you a wonderful, safe, healthy and happy holiday and a peaceful festive season. Doug and I look forward to seeing all of you again next year.
