Dear families, welcome to the new term.
Looking forward to seeing the children's sunny smiles!

Adult and Child Group reflects Steiner’s wish to nurture children and their families, as well as to recognise the importance of protecting the wonder of early childhood.

​We invite Parents/carers and children to our Acorns, old and new, to join us.
​Bookings for the next term, called summer term (but where is the summer?) are open on line, now!

We do not have a “drop in” session, families are asked to book a place and pay in advance for a term. 
There is a maximum number of families expected for each session and so, with the limited space we have available, is more comfortable for everyone.  It also provides a known group for both the children and parents, carers, enabling support and friendships to grow.

We sometimes have a waiting list as sessions fill up very quickly.
​For this it is best you
book asap, as places get booked on a first come first served basis.
If a particular group you have been attending is your favourite one, do book now so not to loose your space, as newcomers will book as well!


We are offering some special Easter break drop in sessions, see below post for dates.
These sessions could be an opportunity to come and try us, like an
open morning,
before you commit to the term.


The summer term dates are:

​18/04/16 until 15/06/16
half term: 30/05/16 – 03/06/16

​Bookings for summer term open from Easter Monday

Anna Prokhovnik Cooper is a master Lyre Teacher. She has a long experience facilitating workshops exploring the pedagogical and therapeutic qualities of music for all ages.

Church of Ascension, Dartmouth Row, SE10 8AW

In the words of master lyre teacher Anna Prokhovnik Cooper of Northern Ireland,
“The modern lyre is a most unique and unusual instrument because of its purity of tone and harmonic potential. It is suitable for all ages to play, from young children to older people.
Although it has specific techniques of playing, it is not a difficult instrument to master.
It can be enjoyed at all levels of playing ability.
Its tone gives a wonderful quality of healing and relaxation, whether it is played in a therapeutic, social, or teaching setting.”

Hello and Privet!
I'm a native Russian speaker and a mother of two. I’m also a trained TV presenter and speech coach. I'm passionate about helping children express themselves and build their confidence in the languages they speak.

​


 
​
Three years ago I co-founded a Greenwich-based Хоровод Club to help local children play and make friends in Russian. I'm now running a Продлёнка Club project that runs drama-based after school clubs in Russian. 
(optional)
I have been coming to Acorns sessions with my both children and have been offered this fantastic opportunity to hold sessions in Russian. These monthly meeting will be great fun as they will follow the Acorns rhythm, and also center around a particular Russian festival, like Masleniza, and Easter, the Orthodox way.
I hope you can join in the fun!
 
Yours,
Anastasia Haydulina
