Melanie Deefholts Talks

We had the honour of Melanie Deefholts of Practical Wholistic Parenting giving deeply educational talks last week at our school. Melanie Deefholts is an international speaker working across more than 35 Steiner schools in Australia & Asia. With over 15 years experience, she mentors students, parents, teachers and school leaders through her work with Developing the Self.

Developing the World, she supports healthy relationships and child development in

both school and home settings. This marked Melanie’s third visit to Alice Springs. As her work continues to deepen alongside a changing world, the content of these parent sessions also evolves—offering fresh insights and renewed perspectives each time. Families are always warmly encouraged to attend, even if they have joined in previous years.
