Germany’s first nationwide bioeconomy pilot school has opened it’s doors in September 2024!

BioBeo has contributed to the establishment of this new primary school with a focus on bioeconomy education. The school is called LENA, short for “Lebendige Naturschule”, which means that children will be supported to be themselves in a place where they can explore and pursue their curiosity while being active both in indoor classrooms and especially in outdoor learning environments. LENA believes that a combination of community involvement and outdoor learning provides children with an optimal learning environment and space for personal development. Parental involvement is one of the key pillars of the new school, which is also an important part of the BioBeo project and is represented by our partners from Parents International.

The BioBeo project consortium wishes LENA all the best and looks forward to working with them in the future!
