The Flexible Curriculum exists of activities within real-life settings. First within the family setting, but as the child grows older it will participate in activities within the extended family, neighborhood, village, region, nation and world affairs. The involvement differs from watching the activities to being innovative with the knowledge acquired. Most of the activities are derived from the natural world or connected to it.. We learn in nature and from nature. The lessons aim to instill a love for life-long learning, and apply that knowledge in practice. In order to reach this goal we have the following programme.

The need to conserve and to live with nature instead of opposed to it are challenges that urgently require action. We need a generation of experts who delve deeply into microscopic details and at the same time have general knowledge and morality. This begs for an educational approach in which teachers as well as learners need
to test their knowledge and talents within a real-life context.

Children are naturally very open to learn in real-life-situations. Daniel Quinn wrote: 'Children are the most fantastic learners in the world'.  and we agree. It is a privilege to be their guide and introduce them to the complexity of this world.
