A learning process that deepens in every grade
At our school, the curriculum set by the Ministry of National Education is followed. The difference lies in how that curriculum is lived: core subjects and subject lessons are taught in connection with one another and with nature.
Our students know what they are learning and why; they achieve lasting learning by experiencing and by making connections between topics.
Key features of the programme
- Delivering the national curriculum across disciplines
- Learning environments in the classroom, outdoors and in the forest
- Project-based and experiential work
- Activities that support critical and creative thinking
