An experience filled with art, wellness, and contact with nature that stimulates personal expression and harmonious English learning.
FROM GARDEN TO TABLE: CONSCIOUS EATING
An educational and practical workshop where children will discover where the food they eat really comes from and how to make more conscious and sustainable choices.
We’ll explore different food supply chains , discuss the importance of seeds, sharing, and abundance , and compare monocultures versus polycultures to understand the impact of food on the well-being of the planet.
Children will engage in sensory play , trying out supermarket fruits and vegetables versus local and organic options. They’ll also be able to personalize a recycled planter , plant their own seeds (ideally companion plants!), and learn how to care for them at home.
This is an enriching experience to cultivate ecological awareness, enjoy nature, and practice English through play and exploration.
THE JOURNEY OF PLANTS: FROM SEED TO LIFE
A workshop full of discovery, science, and contact with nature, where children will learn in English how plants are born, grow, and reproduce.
We’ll use Montessori cards to learn about the parts of a plant and its life cycle . We’ll conduct a simple experiment to understand photosynthesis and observe how some plants survive in extreme conditions (with too much or too little water).
Children will discover how to obtain free plants through propagation and create their own pots with recycled materials to plant cuttings they can care for at home. A scientific, creative, and ecological workshop that cultivates curiosity, a love of nature, and English as a learning tool.
ZERO WASTE: CREATE, RECYCLE AND TRANSFORM
A practical and mindful workshop where children become little agents of change as they explore the world of waste, recycling, and creativity—all in English and surrounded by nature.
We’ll begin by collecting trash from our local area , sorting it into categories, and learning about decomposition times and where our waste goes. We’ll reflect on how to generate less trash and what we can do to prevent people from littering the environment.
Then, inspired by real-life examples, we’ll imagine new ways to reuse trash to create art or give objects a second life. Finally, the children will design and build their project, either individually or as a team.
A transformative experience that raises ecological awareness, encourages collaborative work , and allows them to learn English through action and creativity.
NATURAL ENERGY: SCIENCE AND COOKING IN THE SUN
A workshop full of practical outdoor experiments where children will learn, in English, how renewable energy works and how we can harness it in creative and sustainable ways .
We’ll explore ideas about energy use with a fun activity and then build a homemade solar oven , using simple materials to capture the sun’s energy.
And best of all! We’ll end up cooking with our own solar energy , proving that science can also be delicious.
A workshop that combines scientific learning, creativity, and environmental awareness , while children have fun in nature and practice English without even realizing it.
THE POWER OF THE EARTH: DISCOVER THE WORLD BENEATH OUR FEET
A fascinating nature workshop where children explore the importance of healthy soil for life, nutrition, and the balance of the planet.
We’ll play “Soil Food Web ,” a game that teaches in a fun way how organisms living underground are interconnected. Then, with a visual experiment, we’ll see how water penetrates healthy soils and what this means for our plants and crops.
We’ll discuss composting as a practical and powerful solution for reducing waste and improving soil. Children will create their own homemade composting station or participate in a community composting station within the workshop setting. They’ll also build their own worm farms to observe how these tiny creatures transform waste into life.
