The Annual Olympics is an event that celebrates Human Excellence and Grace. Neither of these aspects has anything to do with competition. To 'compete' with another puts the integrity of the Human being at stake. The central purpose of a Waldorf School is to develop the individuality of every child and adult. This can only be possible in an environment where envy and jealousy are not allowed to surface, stealing the joy of collaborative work. We especially request parents to help us build this mood of cooperation by appreciating the efforts of all the children who will partake in the event. We also would invite you to understand that the Olympics is one final aspect of a long process – Immersing the young children in the real mood of Ancient Greece, where Gods, Mortals and Heroes worked together for the evolution of the Human Being. Every child is a little Heracles, given the earnestness with which he or she takes on the tasks set before him or her. Together, let us celebrate the earnestness and seriousness of purpose evident in EVERY CHILD's efforts and applaud it. We hope you'll join us in making the Olympics a Celebration of Childhood. #diksha #dikshawaldorf #preranawaldorf #VELSacademy #yellowtrain #abhayawaldorf
