Winter School round-up
It’s that holiday season again, and you all know what that means right? That’s right, it’s winter school time (well, for those of you in the northern hemisphere anyway). Unfortunately, because of my little absence, lead time for some of these is a little tight, but here we go:
- The Swiss Winter School (linked page is german) is running from December 25th to the 30th at the Boldern Centre near Zurich. The theme this year is “One Common Faith” and there will be afternoon workshops in film-making, learning Arabic, singing, deepening and much more. All talks and workshops will be held in or translated into French, German and English.
Register here or write to tracyshoe@bluewin.ch for more info. - In the US, there’s the Lou Helen family winter school running from December 27th to January 1st. Registation information here.
- The registration for Japan’s winter school ended on December 2nd, but you may be able to sneak in if you’re going to be Takamatsu City between the 23rd and 25th of December
- And instead of me listing every winter school out there, check the list here for details about winter schools in Ireland, Slovakia, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Scotland, New Caledonia & The Loyalty Islands and New Zealand (astute readers will note that these last two are technically summer schools, but let’s not split hairs shall we?)
(Update: An astute reader who, no doubt, noticed that New Zealand is having its summer school now, aslo noticed that if you go to this page of the Swiss summer school site, you can read all about the program en francais)
