Hohepa Homes

Hohepa Homes

The Hohepa Homes and Schools would like to hear from students who would be interested to work with groups of intellectually handicapped young adults over the holiday periods.

The Homes provide residential care, work and recreation facilities for intellectually handicapped children and adults based on the indications given by Dr Rudolf Steiner. Students who are interested in philosophy, teaching, craft and/or music could find the experience of assisting at Hohepa very worthwhile.

There will be no May Course in 1981, but preparations are being completed for a course of special interest next year.

During the week, 11 to 15 May inclusive, however, we are issuing an invitation to those who are interested, that, they participate in a work and recreation week. Activities will include the preparation of food and cooking, work in the orchard and garden, craft activity, painting, eurythmy and some lectures and discussion groups. It is not proposed to charge a fee, but visitors will be asked to contribute $25 towards the expense of their board and lodging.

As everyone will be living in the Home School itself, would you please advise if you and/or any friends will be coming, in order that accommodation may be reserved. (Address from Salient Office).
