At Wild and Unstructured Learning, we believe that life skills are some of the most important things you’ll ever learn. While school teaches us many valuable lessons, what about the basics of everyday life? Things like taking responsibility for our actions, packing for trips, practicing good hygiene, cleaning up after ourselves, showing kindness, and seeing the world from other perspectives—these are just a few of the essential skills we cover in this life skills class.

This class is ongoing, so you can jump in whenever it fits your schedule. Whether you stay for just one week or the entire year, each lesson stands on its own, offering a complete and valuable experience. Join us in teaching your child the life skills they’ll need to thrive.
