What are the Genuine Green Schools like?

Genuine Green Schools is one of our projects that aim to teach through an active participation, empathy, increasing awareness and use of modern audiovisual technologies.
We offer five day long trips to magnificent and spectacular areas of Polish country. Our Green Schools differ from the usual holidays as the children acquire ecological knowledge not only through the variety of workshops and other activities but also learn about it across a wide range of their school subjects like maths, physics, chemistry or Polish.
We choose the most beautiful towns for our green trips, often located about the national parks which are the most valuable treasures of the Polish nature.

Our green schools are the best remedy for stress and tiredness as well as a perfect way to get back your inner and physical balance.
We avoid popular places of interest and fascinating yet very crowded cultural and historical centres. Instead of that we offer a relaxing stay in quiet and sometimes completely unknown places that are also interesting. The Genuine Green Schools are meant to provide a real knowledge to the participants. It is a knowledge on the local natural environment as well as on the tradition of particular region. It is assimilated through an active participation and a direct touch that allows receiving it with all our senses.
These lessons awake a spirit of discovery in children and therefore are impossible to forget.
