A thoughtful rhythm

Not a classroom schedule.
A living experience.

The second hour changes with the weather and the time of year, rotating between gardening and survival skills. The rhythm remains intentional: welcome the child, engage the body through soccer, work with the land, share lunch, and finish the day creating and speaking Spanish through art.
