Each level of learning takes the student
through stages which are labelled
"Connectors" and "Beliefs." The smaller
green circles are the connectors and the larger
yellow circles are the beliefs. (For exact definitions
of each circle please visit the curriculum page.)

These circles are grouped in this manner as a
way of creating a building block format where
growth can flourish. This pattern of belief and
connector is a reflection of our dualistic world,
where cause and effect, desire and fulfillment,
govern how we interact with life. This pairing of
two's is a subtle seed within this curriculum.

Throughout this 10 year course the emphasis
remains one of developing a child's own sense
of their inner self. Learning becomes a spiralling
staircase of reflection and action. Two legs
moving at different times but in a way that
serves the whole. One leg acting as a
connector and the other as the belief. . .

Each of the points to the right are sides in the
lifestream star of learning. These are a series of
progressive learning stages that are specifically
enhanced through the use of exercises,
stories, and examples. The end goal is a unique
spirituality that is directly spawned from the
student themselves.

Each circle can be compared to a road sign.
The size of the road and the landscape is all
open to personal interpretation. The curriculum
in its entirety relies heavily on the use of adult
interaction. A main prerequisite for adult tuition
is possession of basic spiritual concepts.
However, while the thread that connects and
moves this curriculum is spiritually based, most
of the applications do not necessarily have to
be put in that framework.

The continuing goal for the adult tutor is to
demonstrate how each step is a continuation
and expansion upon the prior lessons. In each
year we are balancing the intellect against
the feeling nature of a child's personality
and the exercises used should illustrate
that balance.

When children play a game they usually are
aware of the end result. "This is why I am
playing this game" and "this is what I am
getting out of it!" In a way this curriculum is
like a game, but with a lot less structure
and rules. If a child knows that they are
participating in this program because it is an
extension of their parents teaching technique,
then they will view this "game" as an extension
of their play. Thus trusting in the purpose of
the end result.

The implementation of all ten stages of learning
can be as fun or serious as is necessary. It will
adjust depending on the child involved, but will
also be a direct reflection on the tutors
teaching style. Please browse through the
following pages which will examine the
curriculum in more depth and how you can
actively integrate it into your child's
development.
