Roots and Wings School is a small international school in Brussels, Belgium that opened in 2009. It offers preschool, primary and secondary education. The school uses a project-based approach aimed at unfolding of each child's full potential. Its setting is in the middle of a wooded park, with the outdoors used as a second classroom.
Preschool weekly activities include free and spontaneous play, cooking, gardening, nature walks, yoga, storytelling, songs and games, experiments and creative arts. These activities are non-academic in nature yet crucial for building a strong foundation for future academic and life success, and they support self-directed learning. Parents actively participate in their child's educational journey in preschool, and once a month they share a passion or talent with the class.
