EARTH SYSTEM EDUCATION™

Our Approach

Our innovative way of breaking the Earth into 7 spheres enables children to explore topics such as the Earth’s climate, biodiversity, global citizenship and healthy living. We cover all STEAM subjects, the humanities and highlight ways of introducing literacy and numeracy concepts through sustainability topics too. With the keys to understanding our planet, children will be able to measure the impact of their choices on society and the environment. They will be empowered to become change-makers and stewards of our planet.
