The basic principles of our school life
Our school aims to create a free and warm environment that respects human rights and is free of fear and coercion. The principles below summarise how school life works.
- RespectTeacher–student and peer relationships are shaped by respect, empathy and collaboration. Every child is noticed, listened to and valued.
- ResponsibilityChildren experience taking responsibility for their own belongings, the environment they live in and the community.
- Mistakes are made sense ofTrying, getting it wrong and trying again are part of learning. Mistakes are not punished; they are made sense of.
- Safe freedomActivities in nature are planned with a risk-benefit analysis and carried out under teacher supervision. The aim is not to create danger but to teach the child to manage risk.
- School hoursThe school is open from 07:45 to 17:00. Lessons start at 09:00 and end at 16:00. The MEB academic calendar applies.
- Healthy eatingThere is no canteen at school; meals are prepared in the school kitchen. For our food culture, see our meal menu page.
- School uniformStudents' school clothing follows the uniform standard set in line with the MEB regulation. Details are on the uniform page.
- School–family cooperationFamilies and the school work together in open, transparent communication based on mutual trust.
