Winter School Phuket – Humanistic Education Under Palm Trees

A Vision Becomes Reality

The idea of a winter school in Phuket, Thailand, is taking shape. From November to February, children and families from Switzerland and Europe will have the opportunity to experience humanistic education in an international setting – with nature, culture, and holistic learning.

Why Phuket?

Thailand offers not only a pleasant winter climate but also a rich culture that reflects many values of humanistic pedagogy: respect, community, mindfulness, and connection to nature. Phuket as a location combines international accessibility with an inspiring learning environment.

The Pedagogical Concept

The winter school combines structured learning with free exploration. Mornings feature guided learning units – in small, mixed-age groups. Afternoons are dedicated to nature explorations, creative projects, and cultural encounters. The teaching languages are German, English, and Russian.

Who Is the Winter School For?

The program is aimed at families who spend several weeks or months in Thailand during winter and want to offer their children a meaningful educational alternative. Digital nomads with children and expat families are also warmly welcome. Registration is flexible – from individual weeks to the entire period.

Next Steps

We are currently looking for suitable premises in Phuket and developing the detailed curriculum. Interested families can already register their interest on our website. The start is planned for November 2026.
