Helen Parkhurst wrote over one hundred years ago: “The secret of education, so Emerson tells us lies in respecting the pupil. It is not for you to choose what he shall know, what he shall do. It is chosen and fore-ordained and he alone hold the key to his own secret….nature love analogies, not repetitions….respect the child”.
Today, we would like to wish every child a respect, natural growth of their talents, harmonious and holistic development of their personalities, achieving successes and learn on their own mistakes without fear.
We wish all children in the world an easy path to self-discovery and self- awareness without fear remembering that every child is unique, every child is special. Life needs as Parkhurst said “fearless human beings”. Let’s enable our children free growth of their spirits and personalities.
On this special day, Dalton International wish all children not be afraid to be themselves, enjoy life in your own way and go forth unafraid!
