CAMPHILL SCHOOL NEWS

THE summer term is with us again and with it comes a new sense of purpose to link with the folk of Culter. To help achieve this, we held our first jumble sale in the village hall on llth May This allowed us to show our exhibition and offer candle dipping and hopefully, in the future, more Camphill activities to supplement our Open Day. This year it will be on Saturday 21 September. (More details of this in next Courier)

We also hope to be able to offer guided nature walks through the Estate, donkey riding afternoons and organic garden produce sales. Perhaps, too, if there is sufficient interest, we may find ways to share our rich cultural life with the village as well. The impulse behind this new initiative is the anniversary of our founder, Karl Konig, whose birthday was 100 years ago in September.

Without the welcome that the people of Culter gave the pioneers in 1940,Camphillwould never have become the world wide movement that it is today. We would like to renew our links with the locality and become better known so that in the future we will not any longer hear, "Gosh, I have lived in Culter for 20 years and never knew what was at the end of Pittengullies Brae!" If you are interested in being involved with us please contact the Office.
