For 5 years of my life, BSS was my home. From rescuing snails and centipedes, to finding comfort in the rhythmic loops of yarn cascading from knitting needles, life at Steiner truly brought the circle of head, heart, and hands, to life for me.
With each day, came a new learning. As my classmates and I navigated the intricacies of human relationships, I learned how to heed my inner voice, sharpen my intuition, and enhance my level of self awareness. Being so closely connected to nature taught me that compassion and kindness can be channeled to all of creation, and not just humans; I grew to love the mango trees and tiny ants just as equally.
BSS was always more than just a school for me, it was a nurturing ground for creativity. From crafting our own costumes and props for plays, to creating our own melodies, my love and passion for music, art, and theater is something I carry with me till date.
I remember walking onto campus as a shy and timid girl, but I walked out knowing I had stronger wings to fly.
