A MIRACULOUS MOMENT - The San Francisco Youth Eurythmy Troupe in Australia
In August 2008 Andrew Hill penned a letter on behalf of Glenaeon Rudolf Steiner School in Sydney to Astrid Thiersch in San Francisco. He said, “Are you looking for a sign? Here is one! Why not bring your Eurythmy troupe to Sydney and perform for us? You could use us as a springboard to launch a tour of the many Steiner-Waldorf schools throughout Australia. Look forward to hearing from you.” Due to mysterious circumstances, the letter was delivered ten years later, in January 2019. By the time Andrew heard from Astrid he had no recollection of having written this, but he did recognize his handwriting and gamely renewed the invitation. So Sydney was in our sights, where Liz Nevieve enthusiastically took on the organization for our visit, and enlisted Kelly Papas and Rie Rossy in Collingwood, Melbourne to host us there. Steiner education is well established in Australia, and there are many schools and cities that we would have loved to visit, but time dictated a choice, and we decided on these two beautiful places.

ONLINE MUSIC LESSONS
Many students have been continuing to play their instruments and learn online from their teachers these last couple of weeks. Students, teachers and parents have shown great skills at innovation and adapted their spaces and learning approaches to make the best of the current situation. Thank you to everyone for their support in making this happen.
Just as terrific are the students who have chosen different music solutions for this "school at home" period - any kind of musical involvement, be it singing a song, dancing to your favoUrite radio hit, or just noodling away on an instrument, is a worthwhile activity. Enjoy this time to try something different!
