\"\"<\/a>As we navigate this unique time together and recognize the far reaching effects of being separated as human beings, we at Canada\u2019s major Waldorf teacher training institutions are meeting a situation that is asking us to think outside the box for new ways to carry our programmes this summer.<\/p>\n

Gathering in person and travel will not be possible in Canada by July; our summer sessions will be carried in a different form. Recognizing the necessity to satisfy the thirst of our students for this education, our Programme Directors have been working with faculty and students to find a way of offering some of the anticipated classes in an on-line format; a format which will be the right balance to remain engaged, not overwhelm the senses and yet maintain the students\u2019 interest deepening their understanding of our pedagogy and Anthroposophy.<\/p>\n

Many of our students are struggling financially due to the shutdown of education and childcare settings because of Covid19. It is for this reason that we write to you at this time: to request contributions to our bursary programmes. Donations may also be made by cheque, tax receipts will be issued.<\/p>\n

Here are the links to our respective Canada Helps Donation pages:<\/p>\n

We have recognized this as a unique opportunity for The West Coast Institute and The Rudolf Steiner Centre to collaborate in a new way and an opportunity to inform Society members of what is going on in our Anthroposophical teacher trainings in Canada.<\/p>\n

The West Coast Institute was founded twenty-five years ago by Dorothy Olsen and Marjorie Thatcher, both are now retired from their work with us but remain honourary board members. On our website one can find all the details of our history, our programmes and our ongoing deepening courses: \u200bwww.westcoastinstitute.org<\/a><\/p>\n
