In Juniors we 🌱Grow🌱
Ages 10-12
In this stage, students deepen their critical thinking skills and take more ownership of their learning. Juniors explore more complex topics—such as ecosystems, early civilizations, or simple economics—through immersive, project-based learning. Whether building a compost system; singing, dancing and acting in the outdoors; or researching animal habitats, these learners gain a strong academic foundation and confidence to lead.
