At The Love School, what is striking is how joyous, glowing with health, and completely invested our children are in all that they do. We witness their breadth of experience from
moments of pure abandonment and creative wildness balanced with moments of
immense focus and monk-like attentiveness. No matter what the activity,
our children are fully engaged within an atmosphere brimming with a palpable grace, magic,
and the unmistakable vibrancy of love.

Developing the Love of Learning & How You Learn Best: from the Creative to the Scientific.
Welcome to The Love School
Where children are celebrated and respected for their uniqueness, their genius, their immense capability as well as their individual ways of learning.
Fundamental to our approach is creating an environment where children can cultivate a deep connection to their own true nature, Nature itself, community, and the world at large. We, as mentors, support each child developing their own capacity to create a meaningful and fulfilling life. This is encouraged in the way we approach each other and the way we engage in exploration, challenge, and adventure. This includes everything from our highly imaginative free-play to our scientific probings, how we undertake our geographic, historical and cultural investigations, as well as how we immerse ourselves in our artistic endeavors or academic projects.
At The Love School, we believe it takes a village to raise our children and that a cohesive community is equally important for the well-being of adults. We, our children, parents, facilitators, and specialists come together to create a thriving community founded on love, respect and understanding. Parents, extended family and friends are invited to contribute their presence, visions, culture, and skills to enrich us.
