Autumn Festivals 2025

As the seasons sway and the world dons hues of gold,
Now comes a time to revel in Easter’s warmth, a joy untold.
With gentle crafts and nature’s charm, we’re called to pause and share,
To gather ’round the table, crafting wonders with heartfelt care.

So whether you sew soft rabbits or paint eggs with grace,
Or weave the magic of the season, in this sacred space,
Inhale the beauty all around, and let your spirit gleam,
For now is the moment to embrace creativity’s dream.

Autumn beckons us into a time of rich abundance, deep gratitude, and the joyful gathering of the fruits of our labor. Spiritually, this season is about harvesting the wisdom and experiences we have gathered throughout the year and reflecting on how they have shaped us. It is also a moment to honour the shift in seasons—sensing the crispness of the air, witnessing the vibrant palette of the foliage, inhaling the earthy fragrance of the damp soil, attuning ourselves to the gentle rustle of the trees, and savouring the delicate touch of morning frost on our lips.

Many Steiner schools will joyfully embrace the essence of the season, through school festivals, open days, and some, with an Autumn fair. These celebrations are heartfelt celebration that brings the community together in a rich tapestry of warmth and shared purpose. Mercurius may not be able to join in person for these festivities, however we are eager to support the spirit of these gatherings through contributions to raffle prizes and silent auctions, as part of out testament and commitment to nurturing our vibrant Steiner communities.

If your school has an upcoming Autumn fair, or any event at your Australian Steiner school, we invite you to share your involvement and let us know how we can assist in supporting your school's endeavours. Mercurius Australia is dedicated to giving back and nurturing the roots of these meaningful community events. 

We are truly looking forward to celebrating the wonderful Fall season with all of you!
