Natura Montessori School is a unique project: an ECO Montessori – forest school, trilingual, and recently authorized as an American international school.
We are a well-established project with over 6 years of experience, welcoming children from 1 to 12 years old (soon up to 16). Our school is located in a beautiful 17th-century farmhouse, with bright open spaces and surrounded by 14,000 m² of nature. The natural environment offers open fields and diverse landscapes, creating the perfect setting for exploration, creativity, and meaningful learning.
Our educational approach is rooted in authentic Montessori pedagogy, as our team is trained through AMI (Association Montessori Internationale), ensuring a strong foundation and high-quality standards. This is combined with forest school philosophy in Early Years and bushcraft experiences in Elementary. We are a trilingual community, with very small ratios, strong emotional support, and private transportation available from Barcelona and Baix Llobregat.
A key part of our identity is Xtreme Natura, a pioneering program that brings a fresh value to sports in education. Inspired by freestyle and freeride culture, it encourages children to face challenges, overcome fears, build confidence, and strengthen motor skills such as coordination, balance, strength, and reaction speed.
Some of the activities include: skiing, snowboarding, skateboarding, surfing, wakesurfing, paddlesurfing, mountain biking, climbing, indoor skydiving, canyoning, and more.
As Heike Freire reminds us: “Children need nature.” For us, this is not just a statement but the heart of our philosophy. Natura is not a name chosen by chance – it reflects our belief that direct and daily contact with nature is vital for the whole development of every child.
We are proud to be an international community of more than 20 nationalities, offering a truly diverse and culturally rich environment where children and families feel at home.
