Faculty Meeting 

Responsibilities/mandate: It is in the meeting of the Faculty that the teachers from all areas of the school – kindergarten, lower and middle – come together, making the Faculty meeting the only time in the week when the community of teachers is made a conscious reality.

At the opening of the first school just over a hundred years ago, Rudolf Steiner made it clear that this new school initiative could only be successful if the teachers worked together, and with the support of higher spiritual beings. In the meetings we seek to build both a culture of collaboration and mutual support as we study together, share child study, classroom experience and artistic practice, and through our sharing to create a space in which angelic beings can work to help us find the imagination, intuition and inspiration we need to serve the children in our daily work.
