The school takes each child and gives them the tools and environment to be inspired to learn through discovery. Subjects become investigations and the children adventurers. An alternative offering, for sure, but one less thing to worry about is that they’ve upped the ante on maths and English teaching so children now leave at the same level as in other schools. Experiential learning at its best.

Teaching & learning

Mobile phone policy
A clear mobile phone policy is a really important part of modern schooling. This school has provided us with their policy.
Mobile phone policy
We feel that children best learn to use electronic media as a resource and tool later in life, when they have developed a rich experiential foundation of learning which is hands-on and nature based. We make strong recommendations to parents to limit the access children have to technology at home as well, this includes access to mobile phones.
