Our parent education programme gives adults the opportunity to experience some of the crafts our tamariki enjoy in their learning. Whether you're new to handwork or just want to reconnect, this is a chance to learn, create, and connect.
All are welcome, whether you are currently Michael Park whΔnau or interested in what Steiner education has to offer. No experience needed, but spaces are limited!
