A mother is her child's first love..
A simple thought can bring about a big change.
Meet Gurpreet Kaur and her daughter Ayana who believe that their passion is what will get them going..
Belong to a small town in UP , Moved around India for my own education and with great ambition completed my MBA to join a MNC where I worked for 7 long years and would have been still there if the issues in education hadn't touched me deeply. It all started after I started to look for schools for my daughter and didn't want her to be in a factory kind of school. I believe education is much more than literacy but each school i went to showed me only a list of topics in form of syllabus that child would know by the end of it. Almost at the same time during my landmark education advance course i came across a lady whose son was going to a Waldorf school and that was it. That was the first time i heard of Waldorf. I explored it through visiting various Waldorf schools and going for residential training and thereafter opened the school in Jaipur along with the mentor from a Waldorf School and now I m working for it on my own. Its being a tough journey but i am sure that passion for it would get me going.
The school is based in civil lines, Jaipur and there are 4 children in the school including my own daughter.
What I want to talk about:---
How Waldorf Instills a lifelong love for learning in children?
Waldorf, though 100 years old time tested pedagogy, still is very new to India and hardly anyone knew of it in Jaipur. I would want to cover a brief introduction of Waldorf schooling system for kindergarten and how its so appropriate, especially for times today.
