Welcome to Forest Weekend School
Welcome to Forest School Weekend School, where education transcends traditional boundaries and embraces the natural world as our classroom. At Forest School Colombo, we believe in empowering children by giving them the freedom to explore, experiment, and grow in a supportive and engaging environment. Our unique approach fosters curiosity, independence, and critical thinking—essential skills for the future.
Our Concept
At Forest School Weekend School, we offer a unique educational experience tailored to meet the diverse needs of children aged 2 to 14 years. Our curriculum is designed to empower students to learn at their own pace, ensuring that no child is left behind. Whether your child excels in a particular area or needs more time to master a skill, our flexible grading system allows them to progress through levels based on performance, not just age. This approach encourages self-confidence, independence, and a deep love for learning.
