Monday morning, we all went to the Kay Meek Centre for our last play rehearsal.
Last year, after our “Snow White and Red Rose” performance, our companion Mary made a wish. She wished that our next play would be “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” and that she would be Snow White. All the other companions thought it was a great idea and so Ruth T. and the other co-workers agreed. So on Tuesday, we performed the play, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” three times.
This play takes place in a dark and scary forest until Snow White finds the dwarf’s cottage. The seven dwarfs agree to allow her to live with them.
The Queen tries to kill Snow White by dressing up as three different people; a peddler, an old woman and a farmer’s wife. In the end, Snow White marries the prince and lives happily ever after. During the play, Lorna’s bell choir and Marianne’s lyre players played the music. We wore fantastic colourful costumes that were made by Ruth T, Shayan’s Aunt Mina, and a lot of other helpers. We would like to thank the Waldorf school students who took part in this play. We would also like to thank all of you for coming out and watching our play. Hope to see you next year.
This week in our Thursday college, everybody learned about the animal kingdom. For starters, Sean taught us about the very first life forms that appeared on the earth. Then Jule taught us about the sea creatures and the different zones that are in the sea. After that, I talked about mammals and then I asked everyone questions.
After a short break, we gathered into the big room and reviewed the play. We were happy that Mary’s wish came true. We also felt that everybody put a lot of effort and work into this play.
In the afternoon we practiced some scenes from “The Shepherds’ Play” for our Christmas celebration.
Friday morning, we worked in our work shops and in the afternoon we sang Christmas songs. Hanna and Jule played the bells. We are looking forward to our yearly Christmas party at the centre on Wednesday at 3:30.
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
