Re
The New School
These are notes of happenings at The New School.
Fish Kites at Newark
Community Day.
- 12 September 2008 -- On
Sunday 14 September 2008 (barring rain) The New School will host
"fish kite making" at our booth at Newark Community Day, on
the Mall of the University of Delaware, in Newark. The School's
participation in this event has been a longstanding, annual custom and
is always exciting and interesting. Everyone is welcome to come
and help out, to talk about the School and its approach to education,
or to just make a kite. -- JRH
Tea House taking shape.
- 12 September 2008 -- Several
members of the School have begun construction of a new "Tea
House" in the back corner of the campus. This structure is
being prepared as part of a "straw-bale construction"
workshop scheduled at the School for October. When finished, the
building will contain a single room of about seven feet square, with
doors opening onto the yard on two sides. This project is part
of the "green construction" research being pursued by
several members of the School. At the present stage of the work,
however, the focus is on traditional wooden framing and the details of
"hands on" carpentry. -- JRH
The new school year
is off to a promising start .
- 12 September 2008 -- The
new students are settling in and the "old hands" are
regaining their strides as the new school year begins. School
resumed on the 2nd of September, the day after Labor Day, as has
always been our practice. At the customary Tribunal on the
second day of school, several interesting ideas about
"well-rounded education" stimulated conversation and
excitement about prospects for the coming year. -- JRH
