Dear children, you have not been to school at all yet, and for you things will be different now than they were before.” That’s his opening sentence. He closes with the words, “By being good students we will grow up to be the salvation of other people in the world”. The talk comes from a series of talks Steiner gave to parents, children and the community around the opening of the Waldorf School, the germinal impulse of today’s “Waldorf” education. Rudolf Steiner in the Waldorf School and it’s offered free as a PDF at Steiner Books [scroll down to "1922" and then scroll further to "Beginning the Fourth School Year"].
