Steiner in the Centre: “The feeling, the aesthetics, the calm”
Megan Hatton has lived and worked in Central Australia for nearly 30 years, becoming fluent in Pitjantjatjara language and teaching in a bilingual school in an Aboriginal community 250 kilometres west of Alice Springs. On moving “to town” with a baby, she began teaching in all the schools of Alice Springs, and was finally drawn to the Alice Springs Steiner school as a parent and teacher for a number of reasons which she summarises as “the feeling, the aesthetics, the calm”. Megan trained in Steiner education and has completed two cycles as a class teacher before stepping up to a leadership role in the school. She tells her story of being drawn to the Centre after growing up in the suburbs of Sydney and travelling the world. Now, having experienced the powerful healing influence that Steiner education can be in the classroom, she looks forward to exploring the role she can play in helping heal trauma more widely, and particularly the intergenerational trauma in her local community.
