Friday Market

The much loved Friday Market will return, with a very different flair. Having paused for more than two years through the pandemic, it will gradually unfold to become a bustling market where families can come and eat lunch, pick up their groceries for the weekend and socialise with Steiner Waldorf ‘neighbours’.

 

Sadly, our staple Garvald West Linton Bakery is unable to return for the foreseeable future. Instead, individual Classes will be hosting a stall weekly, each with a ‘theme’; and all proceeds from that stall will go to funding their Class trip.

 

Independent stallholders who share the School’s ethos may also apply to join the Market.

 

PAYMENT: Contactless and cash payments will be accepted on each stall. You can also pre-order from each stall’s online shop below as they join. Stall open 1pm – 2pm on Fridays during term time.
