What this is
A place-based family worldschool tucked into the Adriatic island of Hvar, Croatia — a nonprofit running a drop-off school for kids alongside a community program for the parents who travel with them.
Children ages 3 to 17 split into Early Years, Lower Primary, and Upper Primary cohorts, with hands-on tracks in regenerative agriculture, textiles, boat building, and edible plants. Five 2-week summer sessions run June 13 - August 22, 2026, plus a fall term September 7 - November 28 and a spring term March 13 - June 5, 2027. Parents have on-site coworking and concurrent workshops.
A turn-key choice for families committing to a season — or a full school year — of slow travel on a Mediterranean island.
