There is no instruction manual for this, but we have a collective growth mindset, agility and skilled educators who know how to pivot and how to adapt. There is no more passionate or creative group of educators committed to bringing the best education to your child, than the Green School Bali team. I am incredibly proud of our educators and our learners. We are not just getting through this, we are growing through this.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Since Green School Bali opened it has been a dynamic place \u2013 always changing, growing, and learning. We have built solid foundations and a living curriculum that evolves as our world evolves. It moves, is agile and stays relevant. Now more than ever, our focus on skills, knowledge and values set children up for the world of today and the future. Whether our learners are in Bali or elsewhere in the world right now, we continue to bring each and every one of them a uniquely Green School Bali education with energy, commitment and creativity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The new school year brings a different and new approach, with a blended learning program for now. In-person learning, immersed in the jungle and gardens, combined with distance learning and home-based projects are wrapped together in student wellbeing programs and initiatives. <span style=\"color: #075a2f\"><strong><a style=\"color: #075a2f\" href=\"https:\/\/www.greenschoolbalieverywhere.www.greenschool.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Green School Everywhere<\/a><\/strong><\/span> (our full distance learning program), brings the jungle to the homes, hearts and minds of our learners who are outside of Bali. Nurturing relationships and empowering learners, this program is both gentle and impactful.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Regardless of where you are in the world, a REAL experience is at your fingertips now. I invite you to think about a Green School Bali experience now, or make a plan for further down the track. We will be here, innovating, caring, educating and creating an impact in the world of education \u2013 now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Warmest wishes from beautiful Bali.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nTerima Kasih, With Respect,<br \/>\nPak Sal Gordon<br \/>\nHead of Teaching &amp;
