      <image:caption>German Annette (or "Frau Andranian", as she's known to students) lives in Cardiff with her husband, their three children, a dog, and five chickens. A native of Berlin, Germany, she has lived in Encinitas for ten years. She moved here after graduating from the Free University in Berlin, where she majored in Elementary Education and teaching English as a Foreign Language. Annette taught first grade at La Costa Meadows Elementary School before leaving teaching to start a family. In her free time, Annette loves to walk and play at the beach, explore with her children, and meet her friends over a cup of tea. She's thrilled to be teaching at Sanderling, especially since the Waldorf environment reminds her so much of her own school experience as a child. She is excited to share her native language and culture with her students.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Games Thea was born in an Indiana suburb of Chicago to two educators. Along with her three sisters, she attended the only K–6 Montessori school in the region. While she admired the philosophy of Maria Montessori, she became interested in the history of and philosophies of Rudolf Steiner, incorporating them into her parenting style and eventually enrolling her son at Sanderling. Growing up, Thea was happiest while exercising her body—through every discipline from dance and sports, to needlework and macrame. Now as an adult, she is grateful to have found two career paths perfectly suited to her life's pursuits. She has taught yoga, both in private and public settings, for more than 10 years, and she is thrilled to be Sanderling's games teacher. Thea and her partner Brian have three sons, who are all enthusiastic Sanderling students.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Specialty Subjects - Eurythmy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Eurythmy is a movement art that creates a visual expression of the sounds, words and rhythms in poetry, stories and music. All students in Waldorf schools, from kindergarten through twelfth grade, receive Eurythmy lessons on a regular basis. Eurythmy exercises are carefully crafted to support each stage of a child’s development with lessons that reflect and enrich the specific curriculum being taught to each grade. Children doing Eurythmy will experience the words and music they are performing on a more meaningful, feeling level. We currently offer weekly Eurythmy in our Nursery/Kindergarten classes, as well as in all Grades classes</image:caption>

      <image:title>Specialty Subjects - Gardening</image:title>
      <image:caption>In third grade, students take a weekly Gardening class in which they participate in creating raised beds, planting, weeding, and harvesting a vegetable garden. They work with the compost created from the school's lunch scraps to fertilize the grounds, and keep the front area of the school neat and tidy. This form of experiential learning deepens the child's connection to nature and gives hands-on lessons in sustainability and responsibility.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Specialty Subjects - movement &amp; Games</image:title>
      <image:caption>Movement and games allow the students to develop a healthy sense of self and space and to move with intention. The early grades offer social and rhythmic games, circle games, hand-clapping games, beanbag activities, and jump ropes. The emphasis of games in the early grades is on working together as a group, and the games become increasingly more individualized in the middle grade years. The fifth grade learns the events of the Greek pentathlon: javelin, discus, long jump, wrestling, and running. In May, they join other Southern California Waldorf schools in an Olympiad. Lower grades students have recess outside twice a day regardless of weather. Sixth grade brings a focus on medieval games, with a similar spring contest of area Waldorf schools.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Specialty Subjects - Music &amp; Orchestra</image:title>
      <image:caption>Singing is part of every day at Sanderling Waldorf School. Simple melodies in early grades progress to learning rounds and songs with two or more parts in the older grades. The pentatonic flute is introduced in first grade, and the diatonic flute and soprano recorder, as well as a choice of a stringed instrument (violin, viola or cello), is added in third grade. (The teaching of music notation also begins in third grade.) In later grades, students begin to play descant, alto and tenor recorders, continue to perform in a strings orchestra, and sing increasingly complex two- and three-part choral works.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Specialty Subjects - Handwork</image:title>
      <image:caption>Working with the hands is an essential component of the Waldorf curriculum. It develops fine motor skills; persistence and perseverance; and strengthens related brain functions. Handwork includes knitting, purling, crocheting, spinning, simple weaving, cross stitch, four needle knitting, hand sewing, felting, needle felting, woodworking, doll making, and machine sewing.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Specialty Subjects - Woodwork</image:title>
      <image:caption>Woodworking instruction begins in fifth grade and continues through eighth grade. Students first complete a hickory carver’s mallet, a serving spoon, and a bowl (or chest) of various shapes and woods using traditional tools like handsaws, chisels, gouges, rasps, files and sandpaper. With these tools, the students learn to shape, smooth and polish wood. The underlying goal is to teach the students patience, perseverance and pride in their work.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Specialty Subjects - Spanish &amp; German</image:title>
      <image:caption>Children begin learning both German and Spanish in first grade through twice-weekly classes (for both languages) including songs, verses, stories, festivals and games. This presentation mirrors the way children learn their own native language. In 3rd through 5th grade, the written language and reading are added; and in middle grades, grammar enters the curriculum. Children spend Grades 1–8 taking both languages two times per week. Throughout the eight years, the emphasis of the curriculum is on exposing the children to a different culture and on instilling a love of the language and culture. In addition to Grades 1–8, children in the Nursery/Kindergarten classes are led by the Spanish teacher in their circle time once per week.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>SanderScouts leads monthly outings open to all children and parents to be in nature together. We hike and explore wonderful local wild areas. A few times per year we head out for the whole weekend for camping excursions together. SANDERSCOUTS MISSION: To meet the child's fundamental need to explore in nature.  At gatherings we will walk, run, hike, laugh out loud, play hide-and-seek, climb trees, build forts, get messy, jump rocks, collect bugs, watch birds, roll in the sand and enjoy - as a community - all of the magical opportunities that Mother Nature provides.  Our hope is that by communing in nature, we will build and foster an appreciation and reverence for our natural environment; and in turn, we can encourage our children to become earnest stewards of our earth and INSPIRE A LIFE-LONG LOVE AFFAIR WITH THE OUTDOORS.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Eurythmy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Eurythmy is a movement art that creates a visual expression of the sounds, words and rhythms in poetry, stories and music. All students in Waldorf schools, from kindergarten through twelfth grade, receive Eurythmy lessons on a regular basis. Eurythmy exercises are carefully crafted to support each stage of a child’s development with lessons that reflect and enrich the specific curriculum being taught to each grade. Children doing Eurythmy will experience the words and music they are performing on a more meaningful, feeling level. We currently offer weekly Eurythmy in our Nursery/Kindergarten classes, as well as in all Grades classes</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Gardening</image:title>
      <image:caption>In third grade, students take a weekly Gardening class in which they participate in creating raised beds, planting, weeding, and harvesting a vegetable garden. They work with the compost created from the school's lunch scraps to fertilize the grounds, and keep the front area of the school neat and tidy. This form of experiential learning deepens the child's connection to nature and gives hands-on lessons in sustainability and responsibility.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Games</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sports and games allow the students to develop a healthy sense of self and space and to move with intention. The early grades offer social and rhythmic games, circle games, hand-clapping games, beanbag activities, and jump ropes. The emphasis of games in the early grades is on working together as a group, and the games become increasingly more individualized in the middle school years. The fifth grade learns the events of the Greek pentathlon: javelin, discus, long jump, wrestling, and running. In May, they join other Southern California Waldorf schools in an Olympiad. Lower grades students have recess outside twice a day regardless of weather. Sixth grade brings a focus on medieval games, with a similar spring contest of area Waldorf schools.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Music &amp; Orchestra</image:title>
      <image:caption>Singing is part of every day at Sanderling Waldorf School. Simple melodies in early grades progress to learning rounds and songs with two or more parts in the older grades. The pentatonic flute is introduced in first grade, and the diatonic flute and soprano recorder, as well as a choice of a stringed instrument (violin, viola or cello), is added in third grade. (The teaching of music notation also begins in third grade.) In later grades, students begin to play descant, alto and tenor recorders, continue to perform in a strings orchestra, and sing increasingly complex two- and three-part choral works.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Handwork</image:title>
      <image:caption>Working with the hands is an essential component of the Waldorf curriculum. It develops fine motor skills; persistence and perseverance; and strengthens related brain functions. Handwork includes knitting, purling, crocheting, spinning, simple weaving, cross stitch, four needle knitting, hand sewing, felting, needle felting, woodworking, doll making, and machine sewing.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Woodwork</image:title>
      <image:caption>Woodworking instruction begins in fifth grade and continues through eighth grade. Students first complete a hickory carver’s mallet, a serving spoon, and a bowl (or chest) of various shapes and woods using traditional tools like handsaws, chisels, gouges, rasps, files and sandpaper. With these tools, the students learn to shape, smooth and polish wood. The underlying goal is to teach the students patience, perseverance and pride in their work.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Spanish &amp; German</image:title>
      <image:caption>Children begin learning both German and Spanish in first grade through twice-weekly classes (for both languages) including songs, verses, stories, festivals and games. This presentation mirrors the way children learn their own native language. In 3rd through 5th grade, the written language and reading are added; and in middle school, grammar enters the curriculum. Children spend Grades 1–8 taking both languages two times per week. Throughout the eight years, the emphasis of the curriculum is on exposing the children to a different culture and on instilling a love of the language and culture. In addition to Grades 1–8, children in the Nursery/Kindergarten classes are led by the Spanish teacher in their circle time once per week.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Michaelmas</image:title>
      <image:caption>The image of St. Michael with his golden sword piercing the darkness wells up in us, giving us the courage to face the darkening earth. With autumn, the earth draws into herself, and we also begin to draw into ourselves. Winter is the season of inner contemplation. When we look within ourselves, who knows what dragons we will find? The struggle of St. George and the dragon is also a powerful image at Michaelmas. There is not only courage needed to deal with the outer cold and darkness but also within ourselves. Courage is called forth to shine light on those personal challenges we face as socially and morally maturing human beings. When the deeper, inner meaning of festivals is contemplated, a nourishing and sustaining quality enables us to participate and enrich our own lives—and the lives of our families and our community as well. Michaelmas is our first festival of the year. The celebration includes a play, songs, and games and challenges for all the members of the community—with great festivity and joy.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Martinmas &amp; Lantern Walk</image:title>
      <image:caption>From France comes the legend of St. Martin, who as a young man passed under an archway in the city of Amiens and discovered a poor beggar huddled there. The man was nearly naked, shivering with cold, and had received no alms to assist him. On seeing him, the young Martin took his own cape from his shoulders, tore the garment in half and covered the poor man to warm him. The following night Martin had a dream in which he saw Christ wearing the same piece of his cape. The experience confirmed in him his devotion to all humankind regardless of their station in life. St. Martin was known for his gentleness, his unassuming nature and his ability to bring warmth and light to those who were previously in darkness. On the evening of Martinmas he is remembered in many French households with a festival of lanterns, carrying light throughout the darkened home, singing songs. The Martinmas celebration is inspired by old customs honoring St. Martin. As the sun sets earlier and rises later, the world grows darker and the inner light of humankind wants to shine forth. Children and parents gather as the sun sets. Handmade lanterns, often decorated with stars, suns, and moons, are lit as a symbol for the children of their own individual light. And our walk into the cold, dark evening gives the children and their families an experience of caring and sharing as we move toward the darkness of winter.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A second grade student, dressed in white as Santa Lucia and wearing a golden crown aglow with four candles, leads a procession of classmates. Each holds a lit candle as they sing “Santa Lucia” and carry their light throughout the school. The second graders are busy for days before, baking saffron buns to share with their schoolmates, as the procession travels to all the other classes, including the Nursery/Kindergartens.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Copy of Specialty Subjects &amp; Festivals - Winter Spiral</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Winter Spiral is a festival of light, movement, and symbolic change, and is held for enrolled children up through Grade 3. A spiral of tree boughs and pine cones is laid out on the floor and decorated with crystals, shells, plants, and carved animals representing the kingdoms of nature. Amid beautiful music, each child walks to the center, carrying a cored apple that holds an unlit candle, which is lighted from the tall brightly burning candle there. Moving outward, the child places the candle somewhere along the spiral pathway, bringing it to light. This passage reflects winter's dark growing to a close, and the renewed promise that spring light and life will begin again. The Winter Spiral is also perhaps the most deeply moving community festival of the year. As part of the Adult Education program, opportunity is provided for adults to walk the spiral and experience its beautiful and powerful symbolism.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>May Faire is a celebration carried from ancient times, to say farewell to winter and welcome to spring. Dances around the May Pole have been passed through generations and honor the fertility of the new season. Parents, children, family and friends are invited to share in the festivities as the students dance the May Pole and we all share a community picnic.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Festivals - Michaelmas</image:title>
      <image:caption>The image of St. Michael with his golden sword piercing the darkness wells up in us, giving us the courage to face the darkening earth. With autumn, the earth draws into herself, and we also begin to draw into ourselves. Winter is the season of inner contemplation. When we look within ourselves, who knows what dragons we will find? The struggle of St. George and the dragon is also a powerful image at Michaelmas. There is not only courage needed to deal with the outer cold and darkness but also within ourselves. Courage is called forth to shine light on those personal challenges we face as socially and morally maturing human beings. When the deeper, inner meaning of festivals is contemplated, a nourishing and sustaining quality enables us to participate and enrich our own lives—and the lives of our families and our community as well. Michaelmas is our first festival of the year. The celebration includes a play, songs, and games and challenges for all the members of the community—with great festivity and joy.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Festivals - Diwali</image:title>
      <image:caption>Originating from the Sanskrit term 'dipavali', meaning "row of lights", Diwali epitomizes the triumph of light over darkness. This festival, also known as the Festival of Lights, varies in observance across regions and traditions. In Hindu practice, it commonly involves lighting diyas (oil-filled earthenware lamps) on the new moon night, symbolically inviting Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity. Particularly in North India, Diwali also commemorates the triumphant return of Rama, Sita, Lakshman, and Hanuman to Ayodhya, marking their victory over Ravana, the demon king. The school's celebration of Diwali is a multi-faceted event. Activities include decorating a rangoli, with each grade contributing colored rice to the design. A notable highlight is the enactment of the Ramayana by the fifth grade, accompanied by a drumming procession and encircling the rangoli adorned with numerous lit diyas. The sixth grade enriches the event with musical performances. The festivities also feature each grade offering blessings, either through song or recitation. Parents contribute by bringing food, complemented with tea provided for all attendees, fostering a communal and celebratory atmosphere.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Festivals - Martinmas &amp; Lantern Walk</image:title>
      <image:caption>From France comes the legend of St. Martin, who as a young man passed under an archway in the city of Amiens and discovered a poor beggar huddled there. The man was nearly naked, shivering with cold, and had received no alms to assist him. On seeing him, the young Martin took his own cape from his shoulders, tore the garment in half and covered the poor man to warm him. The following night Martin had a dream in which he saw Christ wearing the same piece of his cape. The experience confirmed in him his devotion to all humankind regardless of their station in life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Festivals</image:title>
      <image:caption>St. Martin was known for his gentleness, his unassuming nature and his ability to bring warmth and light to those who were previously in darkness. On the evening of Martinmas he is remembered in many French households with a festival of lanterns, carrying light throughout the darkened home, singing songs. The Martinmas celebration is inspired by old customs honoring St. Martin. As the sun sets earlier and rises later, the world grows darker and the inner light of humankind wants to shine forth. Children and parents gather as the sun sets. Handmade lanterns, often decorated with stars, suns, and moons, are lit as a symbol for the children of their own individual light. And our walk into the cold, dark evening gives the children and their families an experience of caring and sharing as we move toward the darkness of winter.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Festivals - Winter Spiral</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Winter Spiral is a festival of light, movement, and symbolic change, and is held for enrolled children up through Grade 3. A spiral of tree boughs and pine cones is laid out on the floor and decorated with crystals, shells, plants, and carved animals representing the kingdoms of nature. Amid beautiful music, each child walks to the center, carrying a cored apple that holds an unlit candle, which is lighted from the tall brightly burning candle there. Moving outward, the child places the candle somewhere along the spiral pathway, bringing it to light. This passage reflects winter's dark growing to a close, and the renewed promise that spring light and life will begin again. The Winter Spiral is also perhaps the most deeply moving community festival of the year. As part of the Adult Education program, opportunity is provided for adults to walk the spiral and experience its beautiful and powerful symbolism.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Festivals - Santa Lucia</image:title>
      <image:caption>A second grade student, dressed in white as Santa Lucia and wearing a golden crown aglow with four candles, leads a procession of classmates. Each holds a lit candle as they sing “Santa Lucia” and carry their light throughout the school. The second graders are busy for days before, baking saffron buns to share with their schoolmates, as the procession travels to all the other classes, including the Nursery/Kindergartens.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Festivals - May Faire</image:title>
      <image:caption>May Faire is a celebration carried from ancient times, to say farewell to winter and welcome to spring. Dances around the May Pole have been passed through generations and honor the fertility of the new season. Parents, children, family and friends are invited to share in the festivities as the students dance the May Pole and we all share a community picnic.</image:caption>
