Creativity


Creativity -
a living approach to education which can enliven every facet of learning. This is a fundamental principle of Steiner education.
"I think that it is not exaggerated to say that no other educational system in the world gives such a central role to the arts as the Waldorf School Movement. Even mathematics is presented in an artistic fashion and related via dance, movement or drawing to the child as a whole."Konrad Oberhuber, Professor of Fine Arts, Harvard University

"Conditions for creativity are to be puzzled; to concentrate; to accept conflict and tension; to be born everyday; to feel a sense of self." -- Erich Fromm
