Handwork offers the students a rare opportunity to experience a quiet, contemplative and productive activity. The projects reflect a pendulum swing between creative and practical; short and long-term projects; personal satisfaction and altruism, providing the students an opportunity to experience the value of altruism and community service from first grade on.
Handwork provides an age-appropriate physical encounter with the material world and equips the students with useful skills to manage the practical affairs of life and develop an ecological and moral sense of responsibility for the environment.
