ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL IN VILCABAMBA: «LA CALANDRIA» –

A PATH TOWARDS RESPECTFUL EDUCATION IN ECUADOR

At the "La Calandria" Private Elementary School, located in the beautiful parish of Vilcabamba, in the province of Loja, in southern Ecuador, we offer an alternative educational experience based on the Waldorf Methodology. We believe in respecting each child's unique development and work closely with parents, maintaining constant communication.

As one of the few institutions practicing alternative education methodologies in Ecuador, we are convinced that it is possible to offer a respectful educational approach tailored to children's needs.

At La Calandria Alternative Education School, we strive to provide an environment where children can learn joyfully, develop their own skills, and connect with the natural environment around us.

Our school was founded in the Sacred Valley of Vilcabamba more than a decade ago in response to the demand for alternative education in Ecuador, moving away from conventional educational methods. We focus on the holistic development of each child, fostering multicultural integration in this beautiful place called Vilcabamba.

The foundation of our educational methodology is based on a combination of Steiner-Waldorf and Montessori pedagogies, adapted and updated to our time and context. We accompany each child throughout their development, providing them with a safe and nurturing environment.

At our school, we take advantage of the privileged natural environment of the Vilcabamba Valley. Art and play are fundamental elements of our educational approach, combined with academic aspects. This way, children enjoy their school time and make the most of their learning, without feeling burned out.

If you're interested in moving to Vilcabamba to continue your children's education, we invite you to visit the Tierras Realty website and contact us for more details about Vilca Services.

We are La Calandria School, an institution dedicated to alternative education in Ecuador, located in Vilcabamba, Loja. We invite you to be part of our unique and respectful educational approach. Discover a path to an education in harmony with your children's individual needs!

    Hello,
    I'm interested in taking my children to that school for a month. Do you accept short-term children? And what ages are they? Thank you very much, Tess.

      La Calandria is a wonderful alternative school in the beautiful town of Vilcabamba. Children are encouraged to pursue their interests and are supported by knowledgeable, kind, and caring staff members. It truly feels like being part of a family! The newly built school is well-equipped and a fun learning environment. We are so grateful that this amazing school exists in this valley!
