Pioneer Village- Grade 4 Immersion

Pioneer Village 2008 025[1] “What, girls can’t run and play? That’s not fair!” Life was not easy or fair for girls back in the pioneer days. Imagine getting married in 4 years!   Every Fall, every year the grade four class spends a week at Pioneer Village completely immersing themselves into a life without plastic, without oranges, strict classrooms- dunce cap included, making candles with animal fat, carding wool and playing ‘old-fashioned’ games. It is a learning experience the children will never forget. In fact, a parent at our school who is also a Waldorf Alum sent us this photo of herself (with the spinning wheel) at Pioneer Village! Good memories indeed!
