Our Location
Our school is located in the green outskirts of Cascais at the foothill of the Sintra- Cascais Natural Park with a beautiful view of the Sintra mountains.
Nature
Two minutes’ walk from the school, we have the most amazing green valley with pine trees, hills where the goats
and sheep graze and a little stream where the children can play on a sunny day.
Our Facilities
Our School was designed to be in balance with nature, with sustainable materials, maximising light and connections to the outdoor spaces.
A minimalist aesthetic combined with humanistic qualities.
The warmth, functional and harmonious environment reflects our intention of learning and caring.
We have generous size classes, art, music and sport facilities, an amphitheatre, a comfy library, a therapy room, Physics, Biology and Chemistry Labs fully equipped according to Cambridge requirements and plenty of outdoor spaces.
An affective and collaborative project.
