FOUR
WINDS PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Lots of
ideas are blossoming at Four Winds! Our interests in Holistic Education
and Sustainable Living come together in unique ways. Currently our
activity is centered on:
- The Living Learning
Collaborative at Four Winds Farm is our unique educational
community that fosters a strong sense of meaning and purpose through
experiential learning. It is how we put into practice our
approach to teaching and learning, incorporating the GATE principles
and developing strength through collaboration.
- ENTHEOS!,
a program of inspiration for teachers. Never before has there
been such a need for teachers to have a space for reflection and
renewal as the demands of the world increasingly challenge them
and their students. How do teachers sustain their work and
what they know to be true, while evolving to best serve their
students and their own growth?
- Four Winds Farm is our 23 acre
teaching and learning site. Its a place to explore, discover,
and express...with Nature and in the community, providing a rich
context for individualized learning. Opportunities
abound to develop a sense of place and a sense of self. Come
for a visit!
- GATE is the activist
portion of our passion for education! We seek to share the GATE
vision with everyone who cares about the changing needs of a changing
world and our children.
- Dialogue is about
people talking and listening with one another about what matters
to them. It is about learning from each other and from our selves
as we seek to discover how and why we think the way we do, expanding
our understanding of each other, ourselves and the world. It provides
a place for collective wisdom to emerge and serves as one of the
fundamental practices that we esteem at Four Winds.
In the Works!
