Welcome to EXPLORA
Where unschoolers, worldschoolers, and self-directed learners come together throughout the year to tinker, explore, play, learn and grow together within a supportive and emergent community. We are the education of the future.

Explora ALC is an emergent bilingual (English/Spanish) unschooling agile learning community, committed to radically shifting the way we think about learning, education, parenting and what it means to be in relationship. We believe in deschooling and in a paradigm that exists outside of mainstream living and education. We walk to our own beat and stop to take the time to develop our inner compass, charting our own learning path within a supportive learning environment. 

We believe the future of education is based on choice, equity, collaboration and freedom.

Our school was created in 2007 by a group of mothers and fathers who were looking for another alternative for their children's education. It is a totally self-sustaining project due to the effort and conviction of each of its members.

In 2014 the foundations were laid clearly and directly on a free-style education where there are no predetermined curricula or objectives that everyone has to meet, aligning our proposal with a great movement worldwide that with different initiatives comes profoundly transforming traditional education.

Here at Kid Castle International School, students play the primary role within their educational journey! Student-centered learning addresses the social, physical, and emotional needs of each student in addition to their academic welfare. Collaboration, creativity, and cultural awareness are at the forefront of our instruction.

IREN Renaissance Institute

Boundless Life - Sintra, Portugal

Five one-week sessions starting June 27.
Discover your passions in our state of the art studios in the centre of Barcelona.

Each week you can choose a project and our studio guides will help you make it come alive. You can keep it or set up a stall at the summer camp marketplace on Fridays to try and sell your creations!

As well as taking advantage of the amazing spaces of the Urban Hub, once a week we will go on a new field trip to explore Barcelona.

We rotate the projects so learners can experiment with different areas of interest every week. Learners from ages 12-17 can come for single or multiple weeks.

Join us to discover how learner choice, innovation, creativity and positivity can help us grow as we face the challenges and excitement of the wider world, together!

Bridge the Gap offers fun, immersive experiential learning opportunities for university students and worldschooling families.

Bridge the Gap: Vorovoro Island

Boundless Life -  Tuscany, Italy

Welcome to Thailand! Our Thai-American family would love to help you explore Thailand, showing you our absolute favorite places and hidden gems that make Thailand such a special place. Our world school hub is located in Thailand, but unlike other worldschool hubs that are located in one spot, we offer traveling hubs so that you can keep the same community while seeing more of the country! Explore is part world school community, part travel program. We not only create an environment designed to foster long-term relationships between worldschooling families, but we also treat our traveling hub programs like an intimate family travel program. We highlight the "best of" in each location, organize outings and weekend getaways, host experts to teach Thai culture classes, and teach our own worldschool-themed signature classes! The 2023 program locations include: Bangkok, Udon Thani, Phuket, and Hua Hin.

We welcome Explorers ages 7-18 for our regular program, and a special mini program for Little Explorers ages 3-6. Younger siblings are welcome to come along for the ride with parent supervision. To help foster strong family bonds and community building, we do ask one parent or guardian to attend our Expeditions and Excursions with their child(ren). 

Our heart-felt desire is that your whole family will leave our program(s) with a deep love for Thailand and its people, and a heart full with incredible friends and memories!
