Our Mission, Vision and Ethos:
Through a welcoming and open environment, where children are encouraged to ask questions, where students and teachers research together and welcome unexpected processes and results, we strive to promote confident, curious, resourceful learners who demonstrate intellectual engagement, critical thinking and creative problem solving, with respect for individual differen
ces, and a strong sense of personal, social and environmental responsibility. Our Mission at Terra Moyo is to inspire and nurture exploration and discovery with respect for and close contact with the environment and nature. Our vision is to develop confident, independent and curious children that will create, act and solve problems in tomorrow’s world. Our Ethos at Terra Moyo is based on a respect for children’s right to play and to have unlimited access to the environment and to nature, where children are encouraged to direct their own learning. Our Environment:
Terra Moyo is a nature based and creative school set in a huge, wild and green 2 acre space with chickens and rabbits, trampolines, swings, outdoor mud kitchens, magnet stations, sandpits, fire places and a nature playground including sea saws, climbing pyramids and climbing walls with ropes overlooking Karura forest. The exterior of our classrooms are designed with a mix of a forest cabin and safari tent appearance, fully air ventilated. Reggio Emilia and Montessori inspire the interior with a neutral décor, children’s level furniture and sustainably minded learning materials. All meals served are:
Homemade, varied, vegetarian and organic whenever possible and we prepare everything with no salt or sugar.
