Why Cleaning Has Meaning – An Evening Talk and Q&A with Linda Thomas

The care of our home is rarely spectacular; it continually confronts us with the necessities of life. Through consciousness and devotion to the small things, we learn to transform the act of cleaning into a nurturing act of caring. When we care for our surroundings, we not only remove dirt, but we create space for something new, space for education – a self-education.

One of the main purposes of the care we give our home, schools and Kindergartens, is to create a foundation which will enable our children, not merely to grow physically, but to develop the necessary skills, social and other, to build a new generation.
In these places, our children can start by doing small chores, which will help them to develop confidence, knowing they are able to help and contribute to the community.

We will be hosting Linda Thomas here at Trillium while she is in Canada on a short tour of Waldorf schools. As well as working with our students, faculty and staff for two school days, we are delighted that Linda will be offering this special and rare opportunity to our community as well.
