Vilnius Valdorf Open School

descripción de la organización:

We are young secondary school established just three years ago. We are a community-based, non-profit education institution working under one of the non-traditional education concepts approved by the Ministry of Education. We use Waldorf pedagogical system as a background of all education processes. Our school management is based on the principle of horizontal management: the whole school community - parents, teachers, senior students - are involved in the process of school development and coordination.
We believe that the most important task of the school is to respond to and meet the needs of a growing child. For this reason it is important to provide for children the opportunity to learn by experiencing, discovering and knowing oneself, their environment and the world around them. The idea of ​​lifelong learning is important to us, so we strive to be a place where everybody learns and grows constantly: pupils, their parents, teachers.
The normal school day consist of: main lesson, common brunch, outside activities, three lessons (arts, English and/or Spanish languages, games, practical work, ethics), common lunch, and after-school activities (outside activities, handwork, free play, cooking, etc).
