80th Birthday On 1 June 2020, Camphill School Aberdeen and the worldwide Camphill movement celebrated 80 years! It's remarkable to think that 80 years ago a group of Austrian refugees fled from the Nazis and were welcomed by an Aberdeenshire family to begin pioneering work that is now a Worldwide Movement. It started with 2 children and now there are thousands of children and adults living in 119 Camphill communities in 27 countries across the world. This pays testimony to the power of the Camphill vision to transcend geography, culture, language and nationality. The people of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, with a special mention to the Haughton and Macmillan families, played a significant role in making Camphill what it is today and we believe this is something the North East of Scotland can be proud of. Around the world, Camphill charities will be celebrating our 80th anniversary. It will be the Worldwide Camphill Birthday Party! Locally we're planning a number of events, including an exhibition showcasing stories of the children and workers in the first two decades of Camphill. The events will take place throughout the next year, when safe to do so, to bring together local people and the Camphill charities to celebrate the last 80 years and to share our exciting vision for the future of Camphill in Aberdeen.
