Announcing Fáilte Village: A New Community Initiative for Families

Writer's picture: Jennifer KempinJennifer Kempin

At Fáilte Waldorf-Inspired Microschool, we have always believed in providing a nurturing and supportive environment for children who need a bit more time, love, and space to truly excel. Today, we are thrilled to announce the launch of an exciting new branch of our community: Fáilte Village.


It Takes A Village


The proverb "it takes a village to raise a child" resonates deeply with many of us parents today. In a world where community ties often feel strained, many of us find ourselves asking, "Where is the village?" At Fáilte, we are creating that village—a place where families can connect, support each other, and foster a sense of belonging.


What is Fáilte Village?


Fáilte Village is a community group designed to bring families together through a variety of engaging activities and events. We are starting with monthly daytime playdates for elementary-aged children, especially those who are homeschooled. These playdates, held at Fáilte Microschool, offer a fantastic opportunity for kids to play outside, make new friends, and enjoy unstructured, joyful playtime. Parents will also have the chance to meet like-minded families and build lasting connections.


Expanding Our Offerings


As we grow, so will our activities. Here’s a glimpse of what’s coming next:


  • Monthly Field Trips: We will be organizing monthly field trips for homeschool families, perfect for elementary-aged children. These trips will be held on Fridays, providing enriching, hands-on learning experiences outside the classroom.


  • Parent Book Club: Our parent book club has already started, providing a wonderful opportunity for parents to come together over dinner at a local restaurant. We discuss a book and share insights and experiences about parenting, creating a supportive network of parents.


  • Community Events for All Families: Looking ahead, we plan to host events for all families, not just those who homeschool. This will include holiday and festival gatherings, and perhaps even more activities as our community grows and evolves.
