Science Building
It’s exciting to see the redevelopment of the Science Building in the High School
nearing completion. The final touches are being undertaken while the surrounding
earthmoving and landscaping is now happening. While it is still a few weeks away
from having classes move in, the external structure now proudly stands over the rest
of the school while still blending in with the existing High School buildings. Thanks go
to Stefan Kiefer for his attention to detail and clarity in ensuring the school gains the
best set of science laboratories and rooms possible. Also thanks to Annabelle
Kellenberger for her willingness to support the process within very challenging time
constraints. The building will be a wonderful addition, providing extra classroom
space and better facilities to support the learning of Science in the High School.
Perth Waldorf School as a place of growth and personal development
While the children busily engage with their learning, the school also provides
opportunities for teachers and parents to further their own inner development.
Through regular study groups here at the school, parents and teachers meet with
the ideas and concepts of spiritual science and find their own relationship to the
ideas and images they encounter. With individuals free to relate to these teachings
in their own way, it is simply being open to these thoughts and ideas that can affect
both powerful and subtle changes. Anne Williams facilitates a parent group on
Monday mornings and anyone can attend. Thank you Anne for providing this unique
and powerful activity within the school. Please enquire at the Front Office if you are
interested in joining in. Together with the staff groups running on Mondays and
Wednesdays after school, and the ongoing adult course on Wednesday evenings run
by Horst and Jennifer Kornberger, it’s wonderful to see the impulse of self
development and inner striving reach not just the students, but also the teachers
and adults who hold them.
Class 10 Camp at Coral Bay
Thanks to John Bluntschli, Danica Wichtermann, Feonagh Cooke and Marina HashimMillar for driving the Class 10’s over 1100kms to Coral Bay and back. From all reports
it was a wonderful experience swimming with sharks, dolphins, manta rays and a
myriad of other sea creatures. It’s a big task to hold nearly 40 Class 10 students over
8 days and nights and such a distance. We are so appreciative of your efforts.

the public.
Classes will be open with children’s work displayed, there will still be
some performances by the students and Bandicoot café will be open.
There will be no market or other product or food stalls other than
Craft Group. The Carriage will be open.

ROE 8
SAVE BEELIAR WETLANDS
Save Beeliar Wetlands and Rethink the Link are continuing to challenge the legality and false processes of Roe 8 and
the Perth Freight Link. We have recently put in an application to the High Court to appeal the Roe 8 approvals in the
High Court! We would love your continuing support for our legal and outreach campaigns!
We know folks are really busy or have limited capacity so if you can, gifting funds is a great way to help. Please
donate to our legal campaign at https://www.gofundme.com/wetlandslegalfund or search for ‘Save Beeliar
Wetlands Law Fund’ in the gofundme website. The SBW website also has a number of different ways to donate:
savebeeliarwetlands.com.
If you have some time we are especially seeking help with our outreach campaign (door knocking, letter writing and
stalls). Please get in touch with Maureen Flynn on volunteer@rethinkthelink.com.au.
Thanks for all your fine support PWS!

EARLY CHILDHOOD
There is such a lot of gnome activity in the Kindy this term!
Winter is holding its sway and the rain means that we still have water in our tank. After the parent night in Rose
Room last Monday, some little wax characters were found hiding around the classroom. Intriguing…..
Parent Nights are often times for “Ah-Ha!” moments. Please make time to attend and you may see what I mean.
Time spent in the company of your companions on this parenting journey is so precious, and will reap rewards for
your child, both short term and long term. Teachers put lots of love wisdom and creativity into these nights, and gain
much of the same in return.
Your attendance at one parent night each term is expected.
Swings and cubby in the Rainbow back garden are now being well enjoyed by the
children. Parent volunteers, Bronwyn Maddock, Titus and Matt deserve thanks for
this.
Kindy 4 have been planting out beetroot this week, and harvesting broccoli and kale,
k
which will be used by the Canteen.
Cedar House children are using their new “jouncing board” to good effect. It gives
them precise challenges in the foundation senses of Balance and Movement.
Gardening volunteers have been doing some much needed weeding. It was a lovely
buzz of energy last week in the Rainbow and Rose gardens when Heidi led a band of
helpers. The children get a great feeling of “belonging-ness”
“belonging
when their parent gets
active at school!
One of Rose Room’s all-important
important dolls has had a loving makeover from Anne
Williams, who warmed to the task : floppy neck, sad eyes, hunched shoulders : all
have been attended to. Thanks Anne.

PRIMARY SCHOOL
We are nearing midterm and with a change of season upon us there is much sickness around. Look after yourselves
and your children. Please do not send students to school when unwell. With lowered immune systems comes a
thinning of emotional tolerance too so be gentle people
pe
– be gentle with yourselves and each other.
It is still raining sporadically and the children need to be encouraged to play outdoors - without getting soaked - so
they need a rain jacket please!
We are nearing our Grand Tour Day next weekend and please
please remember that this is a school day for the children and
they will be asked to come to school for a short while during the day. Take the
the opportunity to look into the High
H
School
chool classrooms and see what goes on with our high school students. Monday and Tuesday
esday following are pupil
free days so please take the opportunity that side of the weekend to take a break and not from the Saturday.

UNI OPEN DAY
Notre Dame University - Sun 21 August, 10am-3pm
10am
Tree planting ceremony commemorating Hiroshima Day
th
On Friday August 5 2016, four of our lovely year eight
students were invited to attend a day of remembrance for
Hiroshima, a day when the Atom bomb dropped on Japan in
th
August 6 1945.
Hiroshi Sensei took us to Dixon Park where we met the
founders of the tree planting ceremony
ony and other students
from different schools. Then to begin we got told a story of
the magpies and crows, when the sky was low to the ground
and the birds were forced to walk on the earth but one day
the birds decided to lift up the sky so they could receive
rece the
gift of flight and that’s exactly what they did. Before we got to
plant the trees to symbolize a new beginning, we released two
doves to also symbolize peace. Then we got to the planting of the trees. The four of us split up in twos and planted a tree
t
in our
groups. We took a couple of photos and enjoyed a beautiful day.
We then left Dixon Park and met for morning tea at Cockburn city office where we were served sushi, sandwiches and sausage
rolls with great beverages. After we had settled down we got told another story called “The Story of The Peace Crane” which
was about a girl named Sadako Sasaki. She was born in 1943 and when she was just two years of age the Atom bomb hit Japan.
She grew up to be happy and healthy girl and her dream was to become
become a physical education teacher. But on February 1955 she
went to Hiroshima Red Cross Hospital with a condition called “the Atom Bomb disease.” While in hospital she had been told a
legend where “If someone was to fold a thousand paper cranes they would be granted a wish”. later that year Sadako died on
th
October 25 1955. But while making the cranes she wished for World Peace. “I will write Peace on your wings and you will fly
over the world.”(SadakoSasaki) After we had been told that story we were given
given a piece of paper and were told to draw
something that represents world peace. And once we had done that they would be turned into tiles and put in the city of
Cockburn.
That was the end of our experience of Hiroshima day. I think it’s
it due to say from all four of us Genevieve, Kate, Sophie and
myself “thank you for that wonderful experience.”

indeed! We have been busy making old favourites and new and look forward to having it all on display and sale at the Grand

If you have taken anything home to finish, now would be a really, really good time to bring it back in. It is nice to have a full

Remember, all proceeds from the Craft Group go straight to the P&F, which work tirelessly to improve the school environment
on so many levels. Your time spent at Craft Group go towards your Parent Participation hours. Should you wish to keep your

THE WOMEN’S HEARTH
Do you hear the song of the grounded, all-knowing, all-trusting, deep feminine wisdom that lives within you?
Do you listen to the voice of the Crone? She who sings within all women no matter how young or old? She who is one of the
major threads that weaves Her magic throughout our lives? All women are born with the universal trio of archetypal feminine
energies within… Maiden… the young girl full of courage, joy, playfulness, wonder, awe, zest and expansion… Mother… the
fertile creator birthing her life, building hearth and home, nurturing her projects… and Crone… the elder wise woman, surefooted, clear, all-seeing, fierce, loving, accepting, magic-making, freedom-living Grandmother. Recognising, cultivating and
connecting with these energies empowers you to live into your full potential as a woman, and to serve as a member of the
community of life on Earth.
The Women’s Hearth invite you to join us for a retreat day to honour and celebrate the Wise One within… LISTENING TO THE
CRONE - We will spend the day connecting with this wild, raw, powerful, fun and wickedly infectious energy through story,
drumming, chanting/singing, crafting powerful sacred objects, resting and sharing. The retreat day will be lovingly held in a
beautiful private home and garden in the Perth hills and part proceeds will be donated to The Uthando Project

Hi All,
We want to 'bare it all' in the garden.....
Sue and I have visited garden after garden for months on end, and we're grateful to those who
have opened their homes and gardens for us to do
So now it's our turn, to share all the ups, downs and outcomes in our own local plant garden.
If you've wanted to know what a local, native plant garden looks like after a few years, what a
bee pole actually looks like in the garden after the local bees take up residence, what plants go together well, and
even to review my 'rooky mistakes' made along the way, mark the 27th of August afternoon.
We're opening our garden and you're invited.
For details, please go to our facebook page event or directly to our Eventbrite registration page for tickets.
Please come and enjoy the afternoon for as long or as little as you like.
Kind regards, Graeme Mitchell 0425 054 041. boxedgreen.com.au
