Our Ethos.

“ad astra per aspera” –

“through hardships to the stars.”

Located in the complex dynamics of a lower-middle income country, we recognize the great challenges that the world faces today. As a school, we have an incredible opportunity to empower children to see, to think, and to become.

Woodland Star is a place of stability and mindful transformation, enabling children to reach beyond the limitations constructed around them. Through avant-garde education, exploration of identity, and a strong environmental focus, we offer a holistic experience that teaches children to discover their passions, analyze society, and value connectedness.

Our educational philosophy is based on the premise that every child is wired differently, and therefore requires and deserves a learning environment that is tailored to their needs, strengths and passions. As such, our learning is holistic, highly individualized and differentiated, as enabled by our unique learning spaces and small student to teacher ratio.

Ultimately, we want to teach children how to take actions that lead to a better world through overcoming their own unique challenges – growing, through hardship, towards the stars.
