What can educators do to foster real intelligence?…We can attempt to teach the things that one might imagine the Earth would teach us: silence, humility, holiness, connectedness, courtesy, beauty, celebration, giving, restoration, obligation, and wildness.  —David W. Orr

 

Thanks for the Memories…..

Enchantment and wonder abounded, as we journeyed into the Faerie and Deep Ocean Realms. Along the way, we learned to listen to, appreciate and respect ourselves, each other and the world around us, to notice the interconnectedness of human and natural systems, and to embrace the creativity with which life sustains itself.

Through interactive learning, music, innovative art, hands-on, cutting-edge science, and nature study we cultivated joy, reverence, and a kinship with the natural world. Each camp had a unique curriculum and a different theme, with participants returning year after year.

“Oona has the remarkable ability to give voice and chords to the magical threads between spirit and earthly life, always with great reverence for the things that make life so special.  Oona teaches children these sacred values at her unique Faerie Camps …: Honour the wild and her creatures; protect the elements that provide Life for all beings, and honour the Spirit of all these things. A lesson we all need to embrace at this crucial juncture in civilization. — She’s the real deal.” –Celtic Sprite
