Taikura

The word 'Taikura' has several interpretations:

'Taikura' - heartwood of trees with red wood

'Tai' - currents (of influence, of emotion, of sensibility) streams (of consciousness, of philosophy), ocean tides, tides of life

'Kura' - red glow, treasured possession, sanctum of learning

Since the school was founded in 1950 teachers have strived to educate with an attitude reflected in the following verse:

“Receive the child in reverence
Educate him in love,
Let him go forth in freedom”
-Rudolf Steiner
