Our Learning Spaces

Spiral

This a calm and welcoming space that embraces children and connects them with the world of fantasy, of stories, and play with loose parts.

Wabi-Sabi

Our dining-room and kitchen. It is also used for other fun activities, such as the restaurant project. In Japanese, this word represents the acceptance of transience and imperfection.

Meraki

In Greek, Meraki means to do something with soul, creativity, or love. It's our fab-lab and woodwork workshop.

Allegro

Our music room, of course. Allegro, in music, is a tempo marking indicate to play fast, quickly and bright.

Fractal

This is a dynamic room, currently used by our Primary students for workshops, projects and individual study. A fractal is a geometrical figure which a similar pattern recurs at progressively smaller scales and repeats itself over time. There are many examples of fractals that we encounter in everyday life. A pineapple's growth follows fractal laws, and ice crystals form in similar patterns.

Some of the most common examples of Fractals in nature would include branches of trees, animal circulatory systems, snowflakes, lightning and electricity, plants and leaves, geographic terrain and river systems, clouds, crystals.

Komorebi

Our office and meeting-room. Komorebi is the Japanese word for sunlight, which is filtered through the leaves of the trees. Literally, “sunlight leaking through trees,” this word describes the beauty and wonder of rays of light dappling through overhead leaves, casting dancing shadows on the forest floor.“Komorebi” is composed of several parts of the word: “Ko” means tree or trees.
