Environmental Education Science

The World's Largest Classroom: Nature

At Explora Vallarta, our proposal aims to involve children, youth, and their families in interacting responsibly with nature in a playful and entertaining way. We seek to sharpen their senses and raise awareness to discover the close relationship that exists between the wonders that surround us.

Educational Levels

We design specific activities for:

  • Preschool
  • Elementary
  • Middle School
  • High School
  • University

Pedagogical Approach

These activities have been developed by our natural science professionals (Biologists). Each program focuses on developing students:

  • As unique individuals: Personal Approach.
  • In social coexistence: Social Approach and teamwork.
  • As conscious members: Universal Approach and Environmental Values.

Why a Field Trip with Explora?

Outside the Classroom

In the classroom, students acquire basic tools. For Explora Vallarta, it is vital that these values are experienced in a totally natural environment. We complement theoretical teaching with practice, achieving teamwork, sharing knowledge, and seeking new challenges.

Environmental Awareness

Education in contact with nature raises awareness about fundamental environmental issues. It is ideal for fostering good environmental education, as well as sustainable development for future generations.
