Rainbow Room
The Rainbow Room is a parent, volunteer run school shop selling handmade toys, crafts, books, gifts and art, craft and some school supplies. All proceeds go towards selected school projects or initiatives that support parents, the school and the Waldorf philosophy. We stock some of the supplies that the children use or receive at school, including 16ply wool, modelling wax, 100% wool felt, beeswax crayons, Lyra pencils, fountain pens, fleece for wet felting, hats, a variety of slippers and play cloths. We also stock items made by parent or local crafters including soaps, wax wraps, candles, woven baskets, bracelets and wooden toys.
Volunteer
Volunteers to assist us with opening hours are always welcome. It involves about an hour in the morning or after school to take out the flag, record sales and pack up. Prior experience or knowledge of Steiner craft is not necessary. Email rainbowroom@wws.sa.edu.au if you are interested in helping. If opening is not something you can help with, there are many other ways to volunteer including ordering stock, winding wool, joining the committee or crafting. It’s very rewarding and a great way to meet people. Please visit us on our Facebook page to find information on workshops, craft, termly hours and inspirations.
Workshop Program
Please see noticeboards and the newsletter during term time for workshop programs. Bookings are essential and a minimum number of participants is required. Book via rainbowroom@wws.sa.edu.au or the number on the flyer.
Coffee and Craft
Friday mornings: 9am until 11:30am in the Sanctuary Classroom. Beginners and children under parental guidance, most welcome. Bring your own snacks and a gold coin for a cuppa. If making your own projects then ‘pay for what you use’, but you are welcome to bring your own projects along, including baby blanket squares, craft bags, felt animals and mending. There is a termly program for inspiration, but all patterns are available.
