Dear friends of our Malý velký strom,
we fought to preserve the Waldorf Club for the youngest children in the centre of Prague. We are still fighting and we still need every bit of help.
Why don't we just give up? Because we are convinced that Waldorf pedagogy (the pedagogy of Rudolf Steiner) is the real answer to the pressing questions of our time and the time to come. A pedagogy that strives for the balanced development of the whole person, that recognizes the tendency towards one-sidedness and balances it as much as possible in time, so that the child's being develops healthily both in the vertical (from earth to heaven, in coexistence with the cosmos) and in the horizontal (from person to person, in social coexistence, but also in coexistence with nature and all earthly creation).
A pedagogy that leads to inner freedom and, at the same time, responsibility towards others and the world.
A pedagogy based not on the heads and arbitrariness of state officials, not on the subjective opinions of various experts on what a child should and should not know and do, but a Pedagogy of the Heart that perceives the very essence of the being of each and every child and through living thinking is able to find for this being, again and again, just what this being needs for its development and the fulfillment of his life's purpose. A pedagogy that also requires enormous courage to enter the unknown and enormous trust that the right answer will always come to an honest question.
Rudolf Steiner's pedagogical challenge is clear: a Waldorf teacher is not about being the best teacher (of first grade, second grade, mathematics, biology, history or anything else...), but about being the best human being. And as such, he must never be done with his personal development. Only such a teacher is a true teacher. Some of us have been lucky enough to meet one or more of those "real" teachers during our school journey... But many were not so lucky. Rudolf Steiner's pedagogical approach and true Waldorf pedagogy obliges the teacher to strive within himself towards the ideal of Humanity. This is what makes Waldorf pedagogy so unique among other approaches, and perhaps everyone longs for such a pedagogy in their hearts. We wish it for all children and want to give it to at least those who come to Malý velký strom.
In short, we are convinced that the world needs Rudolf Steiner's Waldorf pedagogy to make it a better place to live in.
A big thank you to our teachers who went with us to this difficult task. Many thanks to the parents whose trust in the meaningfulness and legitimacy of Malý velký strom is enormous, touching and binding.
WE ARE NOW JUST TWO WEEKS AWAY FROM THE END OF OUR FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN.
IF YOU SHARE OUR BELIEF IN THE IMPORTANCE OF SUCH A PRECIOUS PLACE AS THE WALDORF CLUB FOR PRESCHOOL CHILDREN IN THE CENTRE OF PRAGUE, WE ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND HELP IN SPREADING OUR REQUEST FOR HELP.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
