Sun Star Farm Preschool

We run our program on the belief that there are certain experiences that are essential for the healthy development of young children: love and warmth; an environment that nourishes the senses; creative and artistic experiences; meaningful adult activity to imitate; free, imaginative, self-directed play; protection of the forces of growth in childhood; gratitude reverence, and wonder; joy, humor and happiness and adult caregivers pursuing a path of inner development.

Any instruction is more implicit than explicit for the children; we model for them rather than offer explanations, we offer them the opportunity to do something instead of asking them if they want to. We practice slow childhood.

We try to model an atmosphere of gratitude, reverence and wonder for the children, believing that this, rather than just our outer expectations for their good or polite behavior, will grow naturally in them. We hope that the capacity for love, which we believe is deeply embedded in each and every child, will grow in this natural way as a gesture from them toward the whole world.

We take our own self-development and our responsibilities towards your children and you very seriously also joyfully and with deep gratitude.
