What is Nexes?

Nexes School: an integral experience of 2nd cycle of infant education in nature. Integral development: body, mind and emotion working together to strengthen learning.

Methodology

The team and the project draw on pedagogical sources, schools and authors based on respect and care for children and full confidence in their abilities.

Spaces

The school has an indoor "house" as a reference building, which is open and directly connected to the natural outdoor space. The children can move freely between the two environments as they need to.

We allow, accept, and accompany all children's feelings and emotions, both pleasant and unpleasant. The expression of these emotions in a safe and accompanied environment is essential for the full development of the child.

Natural environment

Living in nature offers us infinite possibilities. It guides us to become aware of the passage of time, cyclical processes, slow rhythms, structures, silence, sounds, death, birth, and so on...

Living with animals

In our space we have ponies, chickens, fish, and hundreds of wonderful insects to look after and protect; and every week we are accompanied by the intervention dogs of the Fundació S'HORT VELL!

Free play

We propose free play as a way of relating to the natural environment, a potential work tool, full of challenges and materials to discover.

Homemade and sustainable food

We offer a menu based on local or km 0 products, cereals, organic vegetables, without sugars or processed products. We consider food to be of vital importance, fundamental in children's education.

Family and school

Families participate, they are involved and feel included in the school; they are part of this system that welcomes children and their families in an inseparable way.
