Santa Lucia,
thy light is glowing
Through darkest winter night,

Comes then the morning light,

St. Nicholas day
"St. Nicholas
In the European tradition, December 6 celebrates the life of St. Nicholas, who by legend wandered through the streets leaving apples, nuts, and golden coins at the houses of hungry children. Nicholas was bishop during the fourth century in Turkey, and was renowned for his generous deeds. St. Nicholas’ visit to the school is marked by the trail of glitter, and fruit and nuts he leaves
for the students and teachers.
Families may also celebrate this tradition by leaving a small gift or poem in shoes or slippers that children leave outside their bedroom door on the eve of St. Nicholas Day."- Atlanta waldorf school

And
The Spiral Walk
"The younger children at the school participate in an Advent Garden. The children walk through a beautiful spiral pathway of pine boughs, lighting a candle and then setting it along the path to create a shining spiral of light. Parents are invited to attend this reverent and wondrous celebration. Additionally, in most classrooms, teachers celebrate with decorative greenery, seasonal songs and stories" -Atlanta waldorf school
