Good morning my feathered friends. Do you love the snow?

Hi MJA families & friends! 💛
You may notice there are currently two pages for Mindful Journey Academy. That’s us on both!

We had to create a new page for marketing purposes, and while we work on getting everything sorted and possibly merged, both pages are official.

So if you’d like to follow, like, or share from either one — that’s perfectly fine 😊 You won’t miss anything important, and we’ll keep posting updates, school moments, and community happenings on both for now.

Thank you for being part of our growing village and for helping us spread the word about MJA 🌱✨

More soon!

We have canceled our barn restoration class this weekend.

🔧💪 Mechanics Class WIN!

Today the boys tackled a 1995 Ford F-250 7.3 Diesel and knocked it out of the park. From draining coolant to removing and reinstalling the water pump, they did the job start to finish—and it was a success!

Hands-on learning, teamwork, and real-world skills happening in the barn. These kids are building confidence one bolt at a time.

🌲✨ Our Fourth Graders are stepping back in time as they explore Norse ruins and Scandinavian history!

Through stories of the Vikings and the ancient lands of the North, students are discovering how geography, culture, and courage shaped early civilizations. They have been carving symbols into wood, connecting their hands to history in a meaningful, artistic way, and creating detailed maps of Scandinavian territories, learning how land and sea guided travel, trade, and settlement.

This hands-on approach allows history to come alive — not just through books, but through craft, movement, imagination, and mindful work. We love watching our students build both knowledge and confidence as they bring the past to life in such a tangible way. 🤍

✨ We’re Featured! ✨
I’m honored to be featured in Bold Journey sharing the heart and mission behind Mindful Journey Academy — a nature-based, Waldorf-inspired K–8 learning community where children grow in curiosity, connection, and wonder.

We are working with everything we have to build a space where more children can learn this way — and that means we need your help. 🧡
📣 We need donations to build our school and expand our programs so that more families in South Carolina and beyond can access education that nurtures the whole child.
🚸 Our current system isn’t working for many children — and we must create options that do. Parents deserve to know there are other paths, and we’re fighting to keep them available and thriving.
🙏 Join me. Support this vision. Share this article. Help us pave the way for children who deserve more than one size fits all learning.

We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Marie Hall a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below. Marie, thanks so much for taking the time to share your insights and lessons with us today. We’re particularly interested in hearing about how you became such a resilient person. Wher

Our 2nd and 3rd graders started the day with lots of energy and teamwork during a game of Capture the Flag, followed by a grounding circle time filled with songs, movement, and joyful games 🎶🌿

In math, students practiced number sequences and worked through money-based math problems, strengthening both problem-solving skills and real-world understanding. The day also included quiet reading time, allowing students to settle into stories, and seasonal paintings, expressing their connection to nature through color and creativity 🎨🍁🌷

We ended the day with a calming mindfulness session with Ms. Maddie, helping students slow down, breathe deeply, and find balance before heading home.

A beautiful blend of movement, learning, creativity, and mindfulness at Mindful Journey Academy ✨🌱
