May Fair 2012

The Community Development Committee would like to thank the school community for a record-breakingly successful May Fair. The sun was out, spirits were high, fun was had by all, and we raised almost double what the fair raised last year! Thank-you to each and every one of you who came and enjoyed yourselves. Days like these really highlight the wealth of community spirit in our school.

To each of you who volunteered or baked a dessert, this fair could not happen without you! We truly appreciate your hard work.

Particular thanks go to the area coordinators, who generously and graciously volunteered their time to organize:

music – Teilhard
crafts – Bonnie, Heidi and Corina
cafe – Andrew and Kristyn
carpentry – Andy and Mitch
plant sale – Rain
baking contest – Patricia
volunteers – Sadiqa and Crista
vendors – Lois and Alex
Raffle – Alex and Agnes

Thank-you!!

And, only 191 days left before Winter Fair!


A Brief History

Mulberry Waldorf School began as a Waldorf Initiative playgroup in 1993. In 1995, we were incorporated as a not-for-profit charitable organization, and in 1996 we moved to the former Glenburnie West School. A few years later, in 1999, we arranged to lease our current home - the former St. John’s Catholic School on Markland Street in downtown Kingston. Over the next 7 years, we grew and stabilized our pedagogical and administrative foundations and being downtown provided us the ability to expand enrolment as well as be part of a lively and culturally-supportive neighbourhood. Our lead class graduated in 2008 and in the same year, the school attained Developing School Status within AWSNA. After a five-year search to find a permanent home, the school negotiated the purchase of our present school building in 2009. Our present goals include Depaving our Yard, and expanding the Early Childhood Program to feed our Grade School.
