About Green Living

Green Living represents a simple, alternative, creative and sustainable way of life. Amongst the hustle of our daily schedules, we understand how easy it can be to lose track of underlying obligations like eating healthy and enjoying the finer things in life. Green Living was created with the purpose of spreading awareness around the benefits of living a healthy life within a natural environment.

We need to spend more of our time away from our screens and find ways to let nature balance our lives. Spending valuable time in nature will help increase feelings of well-being and a creative frame of mind.

Our activities, both for school children and adults are held in Mġarr – a unique natural estate that offers the best outdoor experience for you and your child.

Our programs are designed to get children, youths & adults back to nature and restore a sense of balance that has sadly been neglected due to the influx of electronic media, video games, hectic schedules and community breakdown. This is where the fast pace of society is replaced with hands-on experiential learning, team building and family bonding, all with the aim of understanding the benefits of nature and how to adopt these in our daily lives.

Our Green Living Kids Club – a great alternative to preschool

Our kids club is an amazing alternative for children of all ages.

We are lacking nature in Malta and so are the children in this country. The philosophy of this camp is to give the children as much outside play as possible. Spending valuable time in nature will help increase feelings of well-being and a creative frame of mind. 

Our Winter & Summer Club allows children to explore in nature and offers just the right mix of fun and hands-on learning. It will be a long lasting education experience and will give the children chance to view their worlds and their life in a much more positive, healthy and responsible way.

Parent & Toddler Club

Parents can attend at all times.

Our education at Green Living is a mix of what is practiced in Montessori schools and Waldorf Steiner schools. Our young ones are educated together in mixed age groups, irrespective of social background, abilities and vocation. Parents can attend at all times and accustom the children in having a slow introduction to let go of the parent and eventually being dropped off.

Together, through our Summer & Winter Programmes, we will do numerous creative crafts, outside learning, understand the benefits of nature, as well as playing under the trees and understanding the benefits of nature.

Time For Parents to Connect – You will have the opportunity to sit together with other parents while your kids are close by. A perfect way to get them used to spending time with their peers and away from the parent. Tea and coffee is also served.

This will take place from October to June from 9am to 5pm in an age group from 6months to 5 years for a minimum of 2 hours.
