Any child who can spend an hour or two a day, or more if he wants, with adults that he likes, who are interested in the world and like to talk about it, will on most days learn far more from their talk than he would learn in a week of school.
- John Holt
It takes a village to raise a child
The natural way of raising a child means to meet our instinctual expectations and needs.
We are a community where children live and learn alongside adults without being coerced in any way.
By being around people of all ages where everyone follows their interests and passions children can feel safe, supported and free to be themselves.
Just like our ancestors many hundreds and thousands of years ago, we’ll nurture connection and our intuition to have the optimal balance between instinct and intellect.
Another plus of sharing this kind of environment is that we learn best by teaching others. Children will be learning things that they will share with people around them, younger and older people, which will deepen their understanding and increase their learning opportunities.
We will also do many trips around the island as a group, exploring all sorts of beautiful and exciting places.
