Our Ship
The place and space in which we learn and grow.
The place and space in which we learn and grow.
There are many lessons to learn from the sea and sailing that will set a person up for success. A person must be methodical in planning and flexible in action and have the correct equipment and be able to improvise. It is important that these qualities of a person are able to develop through experiences that are appropriate and progressive. An important element in these experiences is the environment and context in which they occur.
We have taken careful consideration in designing our classrooms and school around how a ship must be for its crew to be successful at sea. We only have what is needed, and what we have is versatile with its use. All of our spaces are multi-use, and they can easily change their function. There is access to indoor and outdoor space as well as group and individual work. These environments and contexts allow use to provide the necessary and relevant experiences to develop both cognitive skills for academics and the crucial human skills to thrive in all of the challenges that life will present.
