Parent voice!

“The moments I walk onto the premises, with the smell of freshly baked bread in the air, the teachers on motherly long skirts and aprons quietly walking the corridors, the busy humming behind the classroom doors, warm colours, wooden toys and natural materials lovingly arranged everywhere, I knew that this was the exact place where I wanted our boy to be looked after and make his first social experiences outside of home. ………………We could not been happier; he loves every minute of it……………… The Waldorf path has been an integral part of our journey through like since. We found wonderful friends along the way, who we’ve been keeping in touch with over the years and across continents……….He is self- confident and independent, open minded and inquisitive. The foundations for his development were laid in Garden House, this has mostly certainly been preparing him well for life.”            Astrid, mum (from Germany)
