THE EVOLUTION OF LUXOR HUB 🇪🇬
We started out as a loose parent led project, hiring out of a rustic old russian garden annex next to Thebes Hotel (which has a roof pool and great views to the Valley of the Kings)
As we grew, we decided to take the project to some bare orchards on a family farm which we rented for 2022. It had no infrastructure and the men of the family carved out a rustic but beautiful in my opinion set up the children to enjoy hands on activities, socialising and roaming.
It was rented land and natural materials for fences, roofs and tables etc.
In 2023 we worked on upgrading the site, to have 2 key areas, for little people and older children to work on projects. We had hoped we would carry this to many more years in Luxor, but the universe had other plans.
Families and children have enjoyed the 3 years of space and activities, with workshops, gardening, permaculture, built pizza ovens, animal care, family lunches and evening movies, table top sales, wall art, roaming, playing and much more to make the rustic space open to all.
It is a working farm not a school and we have been very clear on this from our vision at the start. Children need unstructured free play to thrive.
We will be sad to say goodbye. Lovely memories with some awesome comminity spirited families from all over the world.
Thank You 🙏
