This website presents a proposal for new 'Special Character Guidelines' for Te Ra. This is the document that aims to succinctly describe the Special Character of our school. It stands for the commitment that parents make when enrolling their children at Te Ra and for the commitment teachers make when signing their contracts of employment.

The draft presented here is the result of a joint effort between a group of parents, the Kapiti Waldorf Trust, the Faculty, the College of Teachers and the Board of Trustees. It had its origin from two strands that began in parallel back in 2013: 

- A grass roots movement of parents (beginning in July 2013) who felt that the wording of our special character document would was a place where we could get specific about the direction the school needed to move in if it was to  respond to the challenge that had been brought to the school in regards to the unacceptable writings of <NAME>.

- The Kapiti Waldorf Trust who separately initiated a review of the special guidelines in November 2013. 

The DRAFT presented is the result of many conversations and much collaboration that has taken place since then. 

We believe it is now ready for wider consultation with parents, faculty and trust members.
