Our Academic Calendar
10-month academic year
In order to take advantage of nature-based play in all four seasons, our yearly calendar runs from September to June.
Week-long vacations
We also follow the European practice of week-long vacations, and made more of our breaks at least one week long for true restoration for our students and staff.
Optional attendance
Lastly, because our group activities are not based on linear progression, Wilderland has an optional attendance policy. We encourage students and families to go on trips or participate in community events whenever that suits their schedule.
