Soupstone is a place where children can be children, free of academic
pressure, the pressure to consume and gender-stereotyping.
Each day has a simple rhythm focussed on practical activities
like baking, painting, story-telling or gardening, and each
child develops their own relationship to this. In a Waldorf
kindergarten, children come to develop their own personality
more, learn to appreciate their own experience and meet
each other with kindness.
Soupstone is a self-organised project run by a group of parents
and teachers for our own children. We have different religions
and none, come from different countries and speak different
languages. Everyone involved has different needs and constraints,
but we all try to contribute what we can personally, be that
time, money, energy or administrative help. Parents are very
much involved in Waldorf kindergartens - we have literally
built Soupstone ourselves!
Soupstone will provide morning childcare for children between 3 and 6. For
